Immersive well-being software leader Limeade released new employment data demonstrating concentrated focus on increasing gender representation across its global workforce. As of February 2022, Limeade reported 51% women make up the employee population and 48% of director-level and above leadership roles are held by women.
According to predictions by Deloitte Global, large technology firms are expected to reach 33% female representation in 2022 — a 2% increase from the previous year. Limeade has shattered industry trends by transforming its employee experience, retention, recruitment and leadership development strategies to continue to balance representation in all roles.

“We are looking for people who share our passion for transforming work into a source of positivity, energy, humanity and purpose,” said Limeade CEO, Henry Albrecht. “We get all of these things when we promote diversity, equity and inclusion at every level. This is good for our business, our people, the tech industry and for under-represented populations in the world.”
Alongside this milestone, Limeade bolsters its leadership team with the strategic hire of Maria Rowcliffe as Vice President, Chief of Staff.
