The 52:100 Solution: Fixing the Broken Rung in Tech

Tech's talent crisis begins after hiring, not before. For every 100 men promoted to manager, only 52 women advance - fueling costly avoidable attrition. The 52:100 Solution intervenes before careers stall, integrating dual coaching for women and managers with CFO-credible talent economics and rigorous academic evaluation. Women gain skills, sponsors, and pathways to promotion. Companies establish permanent infrastructure reducing turnover costs. By de-risking early adoption with catalytic capital, retention transforms from discretionary spending to strategic capability.
