According to Deloitte, companies with a more inclusive workplace culture are up to six times as likely to be innovative. Interestingly, the study also suggests that companies that actively prioritize gender inclusivity are also more likely to attain financial targets. Furthermore, Digital Commerce 360 finds that in the top eCommerce retail companies, women make up 40% of leadership. This is higher than most sectors in general and might explain some of the innovation in eCommerce and technology.
Indeed, the best performing eCommerce companies create an enabling environment that gives women a feasible path to leadership positions. Moreover, they aim to use technology as a tool to break barriers within organizations and maintain competitiveness in the marketplace. Besides, in leadership positions, women are typically more likely to seek compromise. Nonetheless, this is a key asset in today’s rapidly changing technology landscape. For today’s technology companies to survive long term, a balanced decision making approach which includes the perspective of women is non negotiable.
