Women’s Equality Day: Making Your Voice Heard at Any Table
Blog post from PagerDuty
Women’s Equality Day in the United States marks the passage of the 19th Amendment, highlighting both the progress made and the ongoing challenges women face politically, socially, and economically. At PagerDuty, efforts are being made to foster an inclusive culture, with half of the executive team comprising women, though the focus remains on continuous improvement in inclusion, especially in technology. A recent gathering of women leaders at the company revealed key insights: the significance of culture and representation in leadership roles, the necessity of continually earning one's place at the table, and the importance of advocacy and support within the community. The discussion also emphasized the need for women to solve unique problems, support each other, and inspire future generations, while the CEO of PagerDuty encourages everyone to contribute to creating equitable opportunities and representation for women in the workplace.
