Cloud Realities

It should be a no brainer that more diverse teams deliver better and more customer appropriate outcomes and solutions.  However, the gender balance in tech is not improving, and returning to work after children continues to be one of the main blockers.

Dave, Sjoukje & Rob talk to Heather Black, Founder and CEO of Supermums, an organisation that focuses on Reducing the Gender Pay Gap, Supporting Women Returners, Increasing the Women in Tech  and Addressing the Digital Skills Gap.  We talk about how and why Supermums was founded, what challenges still exist today and how to break into tech as a part of returning to work.
