Diversity of Thought in IT
Wednesday, April 27, 3:00 – 3:30pm
It is no secret that the world of IT has had a long-standing diversity and inclusion problem, the result of which has lasting implications for justice and fairness while simultaneously producing flaws in the industry’s own products.
The weaknesses highlighted by the homogeneity of the tech industry create massive roadblocks to our opportunities for innovation and equity alike. A deliberate, focused effort to include diverse thoughts and backgrounds in the decision-making process enables leaders to explore missing viewpoints and helps to eliminate blind spots in project planning and strategic business developments.
Join Mike Loggins for an in-depth discussion about intentionality in recruiting diverse teams with unique lived experiences. From creating space for women and BIPOC to lead to engaging neurodivergent individuals in the IT field, the inclusion of diverse thoughts and backgrounds allows leaders to access untapped opportunity for their organizations.
Michael will also be part of the Business Impact: Driving Results enterprise panel.
