This is the question we ask in this chapter, which presents a study of women in IT careers. Within a framework of feminist technology studies and gender seen as social practices, we explore the women's experiences with role models through qualitative interviews. A lack of female role models is central in the women's narratives, and we develop a model illustrating the various responses to this lack.

Our argument builds on three analytical steps. First, we trace (dis)connections between stakeholder conceptualizations of micro and macro levels of action. Second, we draw out how stakeholder discourses highlight the critical importance of paying attention to new literacies as technological environments rapidly alter. And third, we underline, that for these two to happen, we need to consider a closer connection between diverse stakeholders.

In chapters 11 through to 14, colleagues will look at key societal drivers of future change, such as the increasing ubiquity of connected gadgets attendant to the Internet of Things, and critical concerns around datafication and the arrival of Big Data. In this chapter, we conclude presenting work on the here and the now, hereby presenting outcomes from the stakeholder consultation part of our foresight work. We distil and discuss themes that emerged from stakeholder interviews around micro and macro forms of action, the inherent technological implications, ensuing academic social responsibilities, and the relevance of investing in critical thinking as part of critical literacies, more broadly, as a fundamental component for positive action. These findings, around the importance of critical literacies, irrespective of technological conditions, resonate into the very futures that The Future of Audiences considers in the chapters that follow.
