The term “women in tech,” though well-meaning, has become degrading and disempowering for women. I believe women should think of themselves as technologists, not as “women in tech.” If “women in tech” is about gender equality, then it’s well past time that we define gender equality at work—and fight for it.The rallying cry for having more women in tech has excused many business leaders from confronting gender equality and has made victims of exceptional technologists who happen to be women.
It’s unclear. I believe “women in tech” sends the message that, until some unspecified change comes about, women are victims.“Women in tech” seems divorced from history. The state of gender relations is the output of societies that did not take women seriously. Many still don’t. Our religious texts, philosophies, histories, art, novels, and inventions emerged from patriarchal societies and, in many cases, actively denigrate women.
Although SysAid’s workforce has equal proportions of men and women, few women apply for R&D positions at the company. As a CEO, I will not use affirmative action to correct what culture wrought 20 years ago. I will not compromise my judgment or SysAid’s success to reject a more qualified man in favor of a less qualified woman. That would be doing wrong by our investors, employees, customers, and applicants. It would be a step away from gender equality.
