Hillary Clinton drops in on eBay women's summit

[William769]

SAN JOSE, Calif. – With the spotlight glowing hotter on tech company diversity numbers, eBay sought to put its best face forward at an internal women-focused conference Wednesday that drew a surprise guest in Hillary Clinton.

"If we apply Silicon Valley's successful approach to the issues of gender and inequality, I'm sure we can make progress," Clinton told 400 female and 100 male eBay executives who had gathered for the company's Women's Initiative Network Summit here.

The former Secretary of State and presumptive 2016 Democratic presidential candidate noted that a natural bias towards men in hiring and promotion "is hardwired, so we have to go the extra mile to unwrap it."

eBay CEO John Donahoe, who started the WIN program in 2011, said that while eBay had made progress – bumping the number of women at the director level and above 148% to 514 – "it's time to expand the mandate."
