Women in STEM

Today is Ada Lovelace Day. You shouldn't need telling who she is, but just in case: She's the Victorian mathematician who was the world's first published computer programmer. Today is a celebration of her and all other women in science, technology, engineering and maths - past, present and future. Today, Kelly Becker of Schneider Electric said: “Diversity and inclusion need to be a business imperative if we are to drive innovation and investment in the manufacturing and tech sectors. A lot of careful thinking and planning must continue to drive initiatives, not just gender but also diversity of thought, experience, and background. “We all have the power to make a difference and hold the ladder up to success. Different perspectives build stronger teams, helping to unlock innovation, investment, and new opportunities to thrive.” And talking of Women in STEM, we have two terrific panel discussions taking place at Enlit Europe in Milan as part of our Women in Energy series: Inspiring Female-led Entrepreneurship and Innovation in the Energy Transition, and The Energy Transition - A Female Perspective.

This really is scraping the bottom of the barrel when it comes to 'reasons' to support in-person working. Putting aside the idea that women should be husband hunting in the workplace, we know that WFH / remote work can benefit employees and organisations. Reasons to attend offices should be evidence based and have purpose to get the maximum benefit for everyone. Enough of the ridiculous headlines. Edit: as several commenters have noted, Bridget actually didn’t meet Mark Darcy in the office. She did however meet all round bad guy Daniel Cleaver. More proof, if required, that she’d have been better off WFH.
