Gender Stereotypes and Socialization

From a young age, gender stereotypes can shape expectations and interests, steering women away from STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) fields. These stereotypes portray tech as a male-dominated field, discouraging girls and young women from pursuing careers in technology. This early discouragement contributes to the pipeline problem, leading to fewer women entering tech and, consequently, fewer advancing to leadership roles.
