It’s an unfortunate fact that, historically, careers in science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) have been largely male dominated. The downside of this is that fewer women aspire to work in these industries, meaning that organisations have missed out on unique perspectives, as well as invaluable skills and insights.
We hope to challenge this, and encourage even more women to fulfil their potential as future STEM leaders. Some of our existing female colleagues shared their own stories and insights:
