StrongHer is an employee network that promotes gender diversity. Initiated and led by employees, this award-winning network contributes to women’s empowerment, helping them unleash their potential and magnify their business contribution. The network is a grassroots movement launched in 2011 by 6 female employees in France. As of January 2019, StrongHer has 3000+ members in 70+ countries worldwide on the 5 continents. Members want a company where women have the same opportunities as men and are well represented in all business domains and functions. StrongHer advances gender diversity by offering networking opportunities, personal development, and a think tank on leadership and management. It also provides exposure to diverse role models for women and men, along with business contacts within and beyond the technology sector. StrongHer has been an eye-opener on the many causes for low representation of women in the ICT industry and in leadership roles. There is not just one “glass-ceiling”, but some frequent explicit or more implicit patterns and reasons at various steps of women’s life and career, caused by others and women themselves. Women are a minority by number within the Information and Communication Technology sector, but StrongHer does not want women to be exceptions or feel isolated. Through its activities and the commitment of its members, StrongHer acts to change the way people think about gender and talent.
