Lack of Female Role Models in Tech

The tech industry suffers from a visible lack of female role models in high-ranking positions. This absence makes it hard for women to envision career advancements and long-term opportunities within the sector. The scarcity of women in leadership roles perpetuates a cycle where young women entering the industry see limited paths for growth, affecting their ambition and potentially contributing to gaps in pay as they may not pursue higher-paying roles or negotiations aggressively.
