Today is International Women’s Day, and a good time to reflect on the importance of diversity in the IT channel. A balanced workforce is better for everyone. As the organizing body for International Women’s Day shared, “A balanced world is a better world,” and companies can help forge a more gender-balanced world by celebrating women’s achievements and raising awareness against bias. The IT channel is striving to achieve this balance.
