Why it Matters
20%
Companies that have women in top management roles produce more patents — by an average of 20 percent more than teams with only male leaders.
47%
Women make up almost half of the U.S. workforce, an estimated 47%. But only 5% are CEOs and 11% are senior managers. (Let's change that!)
56%
More than half of US University students are female, but less than a quarter of those students pursue degrees or careers in STEM. Mentoring can help.
Mentoring girls to become strong leaders and also excited about STEM fields will help create a new paradigm for our global ecomomy.
Did you
know?
By 2030, the country is expected to face a net shortage of 962,000 tech workers.
This presents a giant opportunity for girls worldwide!
Leading tech giants are investing in initiatives designed to increase the number of women pursuing a STEM career. Organizations and all of us at GLAM understand the VALUE that women bring to the table.
Empowered girls become empowered women.
We're Aiming for Impact
Leadership: Studies have shown that companies with more women in senior leadership roles consistently have better financial performance than those with fewer women in leadership.
STEM: Advocates for closing the STEM gender gap say that helping girls build confidence in math, science and computer skills increases the chance they will become role models.*(source)
Modeling: Self-Efficacy means believing in yourself to take action and succeed. Women business leaders and mentors are perfect role models for learning this skill, and positive motivators for girls.
