You can be a global, profitable and successful tech organization and advance diversity. No more excuses. At ThoughtWorks, women hold 60% of our entry technical positions and 30% of our Senior technicals positions, numbers that more than double the industry average. Good intentions do not lead to results, a steel-like resolve to play your part in moving the world forward does. I hope that by sharing some of our stories and journey I can inspire some new thinking and show what is possible.
