Description
Recruiting, retaining, and advancing diverse individuals in the tech field can feel complex. Every company wants to have the most competitive, creative, and, most importantly, inclusive team.  Do you want actionable solutions to achieve this ideal workforce?  Welcome to Transforming Tech, A guide for diversifying your technology business's workforce. This first episode of our five-part series highlights the hiring opportunities and company support systems that impact recruiting women of color in tech.  Host Jamika Burge speaks with computer science professor Ann Quiroz Gates, Google's Program Manager for University Relations Sloan Davis, and Joan Williams, the founder of Bias Interruptors, to explore the unconscious biases influencing diverse hiring practices and how companies big and small can take concrete steps to diversify their hiring.  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 tech companies recruit, retain, and advance women and people of color in their ranks.  Click HERE to view the full consensus study report.
