Women in Tech: A Roundtable Discussion on Strategies for Diversity w/ Roisin Parkes

Historically, women have been less likely to go into the tech industry than men; this has led to an imbalance ratio in the workplace, leaving the few women in the industry isolated. Project F aims to change that by bringing strategies and audits to companies—bringing to light some roadblocks that prevent a business from integrating more women. We are joined by 3 guests: Roisin Parkes, Advisory Board Member at Project F; René Johannes, Lead Software Developer at Haefele Software; and Teri Jacobs, Software Developer Intern at Haefele Software. The roundtable discussion focuses on women in the tech industry and how businesses can take the essential steps to integrating more women into the field. What we talked about: - Backgrounds of the Three Guests - How Project F Benefits Women in Tech - Strategies for Promoting Women in Tech - Recent Positives & Struggles for the Guests Check out these resources we mentioned during the podcast: - The Memory Code by Lynne Kelly - Melanie Perkins of Canva To hear more interviews like this one, subscribe to The Agile CTO Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred podcast platform.
