Tricia Ball talks to the Rogues about diversity in tech. We discuss the declining numbers of women in tech (and the rest of STEM) since the 1980s, reasons why women are leaving mid-career and how we can help reverse this trend. Tricia gives practical actions that can be taken to improve company culture, recruitment and retention of under-represented groups.
