Can technology and big data improve gender diversity?

The answer is yes, companies can use technology and big data to improve gender balance in the workplace.

As we approach the end of another calendar year, most global companies are evaluating how they have performed against their strategic objectives. For many, advancing gender balance in their workforce is one of their top five strategic objectives, but often leaders are bemused about what steps to take to achieve significant inroads.
