In this episode, our host, Mariana Carvalho, sits down with Telle Whitney, co-founder of the Grace Hopper Celebration and CEO of Telle Whitney Consulting. They discussed the existing culture within the technology industry, and Telle’s insights offer a nuanced perspective on how this culture has evolved and the areas where further progress is needed. She talks about the importance of treating non-profit organizations as businesses, how to create an inclusive environment for people from all backgrounds, and what companies should do to develop women in technical roles.
“In my experience, women often choose jobs where they feel like they can have an impact. I think it’s not the only criterion, but it is important to many of the women I know that not only can they contribute to changing the face of technology, but they can have an impact on the world. Those two go hand in hand for many people, including me.” - Telle Whitney
