A new study says “digital fluency” can help women close the workplace gender gap by 2040
To examine how digital fluency impacts equality, Accenture surveyed nearly 5,000 men and women, assigning them scores based on variables like how, and how often, they used the internet and other online collaboration tools.
Men scored better than women in three-quarters of the countries studied. Women in the US were the most digitally fluent overall, but they still scored lower than their male counterparts. And the country didn’t even rank among the top 10 in terms of the smallest digital-fluency gap between the genders.
