Event Description
 



Leading international Women’s Network EWMD is interrupting its normal programming to bring you an urgent Deep Dive on the LinkedIn Algorithm and the hugely negative impact this is having on women’s voices, their careers and their businesses on the platform.

By far the world’s largest, most influential platform for professional connection, LinkedIn has some 1.2 billion members and some 80% of all B2B leads generated on social media come from LinkedIn.

This year LinkedIn made adjustments to the algorithms behind its feed which have had the dramatic consequence of far lower reach for many women and others others posting about social justice issues. It has had even more significant impact on women of colour.

This is already having huge consequences for women’s reach and businesses as highlighted by many high profile women like Cindy Gallop who has seen a dramatic decline in impact with her 140,000 followers. In Cindy’s view:
  • Algorithmic suppression of women's voices on LinkedIn = economic oppression of women.
  • Algorithmic prioritization and elevation of men's voices on LinkedIn = economic advantage to men.

In this Deep Dive on 10th December at 16:30 -18:00 CET we explore:
  • How the changes in the algorithm were made
  • The issues this is causing for women and others
  • The campaign and actions taken so far to persuade LinkedIn to change the way the algorithm works
  • The response from LinkedIn so far
  • The wider issue of bias in algorithms in Ai and other platforms which disadvantages women.

To explore this huge issue we will hear from leading experts who will shed light on what’s going on and discuss actions we can take to push for change.
