We all know that seeing is believing. Representation plays a huge part in attracting women into IT. Even better if the leaders are women. As Sheryl Sandberg mentions in her book Lean In, women’s leaders can relate and empathise with women’s problems. You can’t build a company without realising a specific person’s or groups’ needs are left out.
