Advancing Women in STEM – Telle Whitney, Diversity Expert, Fmr CEO, Anita Borg Institute for Women in Technology Electric Ladies Podcast

    • Management

“The companies that have really made a commitment to creating change, they look at the ways promotions are decided, because often it’s very ad hoc….and consciously or unconsciously, the managers, who are primarily men, just don’t see the characteristics (in women) that they believe you need in order to advance.”
