I delve into the persistent gender biases affecting salary discussions, dispelling damaging myths, and shedding light on the urgent need for change.
I'll also explore strategies for leveraging negotiations, the importance of salary transparency, and how women in tech can empower themselves for a fair and prosperous future.
