Create Inclusive Paths to Leadership

Women of color are underrepresented in tech but even less represented in tech leadership. How can tech companies ensure that everyone has the opportunity to train, grow, and offer their best ideas for leading your business to success?

In this last episode of Transforming Tech, host Jamika Burge speaks with Rocío Medina van Nierop, the CEO and co-founder of Latinas in Tech, Joan Williams, the founder of Bias Interruptors, Mia Ong, senior research scientist at TERC, and Dwana Franklin-Davis, the CEO of Reboot Representation. Together, they offer advice on training opportunities and creating paths for women of color to advance in the workplace.

Based on research and analysis from the National Academies’ consensus study “Transforming Trajectories for Women of Color in Tech,” Burge and her guests use design thinking to help engineering and tech companies recruit, retain, and advance women and people of color in their ranks.
