We embrace equity by saying "There's no difference". The ASSIST Software Pledge

Mon, 11 Mar 2024

In a previous article, we discussed the challenges and importance of gender equity in the tech industry. Despite progress and current role models, women in tech still face stereotypes and a gender gap.  

As a company and as human beings, we at ASSIST Software are committed to creating a more inclusive environment. Whether we support events like TEDxAreni Women and foster a culture where women can thrive or encourage girls' interest in STEM from a young age with the help of The ASSIST Humanitarian Foundation, we stand by our values.

Overall, we firmly believe that striving to obtain gender equity in tech is crucial to unlocking potential and driving progress in the industry. Therefore, we launch the "There's no difference" campaign today.  

"There's No Difference" refers to ASSIST Software as a company. Individuals are vastly different, but ASSIST Software does not discriminate or fit people in boxes. We disrupt. We innovate. We understand.  

 

Why a campaign for equity and diversity? 

  1. Because we're inspired by what we see every day.  

As someone who works at ASSIST Software already knows, every day, we are surrounded by brilliant women who inspire us with their talent, dedication, and leadership. From our Project Managers who handle complex international projects to our innovative minds in research, these women are shattering stereotypes and proving their skills.  

Witnessing their achievements firsthand has made it clear: there truly is no difference when it comes to building a successful tech company.  

 

”There is no shortage of inspiring individuals at ASSIST. Our slow and steady growth put us in a very favorable position to understand how unique we are as individuals. ASSIST does not impose a certain mold on men or women. Talent and skills are genderless, but we also acknowledge that we are different, and these differences are the ones setting us apart." - Cătălina Micliuc, VP of PR and Communication

 

2. We're thinking about the future. 

The campaign isn't just about acknowledging the amazing women at ASSIST; it's about building a future where all genders have equal opportunities to thrive by setting an example. There's no difference. 

 We want to create a truly inclusive environment where everyone feels valued and respected for their unique contributions. By celebrating women already making waves at ASSIST, we hope to inspire the next generation of female tech leaders and show them that anything is possible. This campaign reflects our core values, and we're committed to making ASSIST a place where diversity fuels innovation and empowers everyone to reach their full potential.

3. The results are transformative.  

A unique bond is created when teams bring together individuals from various backgrounds and experiences. 

This diversity of perspectives fuels creative problem-solving. This blend of approaches leads to solutions that a homogenous group might miss. Diverse teams can avoid blind spots and make well-rounded decisions by considering different viewpoints. 

The benefits extend beyond the development stage. A diverse team can better understand the varied needs of a global user base, leading to inclusive and user-friendly software products. Strong communication skills are also fostered as team members learn to articulate their ideas clearly and listen actively to different perspectives. 

 

 

”Our goal is to cultivate a culture where everyone feels comfortable sharing their ideas, leading to a richer understanding of user needs and, ultimately, groundbreaking products.” - Cristi Spoială, CTO at ASSIST Software

  • Promote equity by providing training and programs that cater to women's and men's personal development while considering their particular needs.
