The number of women in leadership positions in advertising, media and technology (AMT) companies has grown in the last year. The story is, however, very different (and much darker) for minorities. According to a recent study by She Runs It and Diversity Best Practices , women currently occupy 45.4% of all executive roles in the advertising, media and technology industries , an extraordinarily large figure compared to 29% the previous year. . Much less promising, however, are the figures that the AMT industry puts on the table regarding diversity. In the last year, the number of black people professionally assigned to this field of activity grew by 13.1%. And the number of employees of Latino origin also rose by 11%.
Still, black people and Latinos make up just 4.6% and 6.6% respectively of the workforce in the advertising, media and technology industries. Diversity still leaves a lot to be desired in the advertising Email Data industry (and CEOs are largely to blame) It is worth noting, on the other hand, that in this area of activity, 17% of employees were subject to some type of professional promotion in the last year. And the majority (75%) were white people.
In contrast, only 6.4% of Latinos and 4% of black people were anointed with some type of promotion at the workplace. Giving voice to greater diversity and inclusion is something that must start from the top within companies. The problem? That very few CEOs in the advertising, media and technology industries publicly stand up for diversity and inclusion. And while 82% of the companies that score best in terms of diversity have CEOs who do not hesitate to publicly support this cause, the proportion plummets to 12.5% in the case of companies in the AMT industry.
