  2. If you are still looking for an idea how to celebrate the this post is for you.

    Just ask your male colleagues tomorrow how do they actually manage to combine household, care work and career.

    Looking forward to the answers.

  3. Why do we have such a gender imbalance at & in tech in general?

    A real conversation.

    Marty: Maria, what do you think about ABC?
    Peter: I don't want to speak for Maria, but... (keeps talking for a few minutes).
    Anna: Thank you for sharing your perspective, Peter, but I would love to hear Maria's perspective.

    If you observe someone dominating a discussion and answering questions that aren't directed at them, please be an ally and moderate the conversation in an inclusive way🧡

  4. I love and appreciate community events such as , but it makes me sad to see the gender imbalance in tech. I'm aware of the issue, but being at such a large-scale event makes it very tangible and visible.

  5. On August 10, 1993, Ruth Bader Ginsburg becomes the second woman to serve on the US Supreme Court.

    Ginsburg herself experienced how tough it could be for working mothers. She lost her job as a typist when she became pregnant with her daughter. This firsthand knowledge of workplace discrimination against pregnant women and mothers would later inform her groundbreaking legal work advocating for gender equality and women's rights in the workplace.

  6. „Besonders perfide ist dabei, dass einige Führungskräfte diesen Rückschritt als Befreiung verkaufen. Frei von angeblicher „Cancel Culture“, frei von „ideologischen Zwängen“. Doch wovon sprechen wir eigentlich, wenn Freiheit bedeutet, wieder ungehindert ausschließen zu dürfen? Wer heute #DEIB zurückfährt, entscheidet sich nicht für Neutralität, sondern für Rückschritt.“

  7. Great article on the dual nature of outsider and its implications.

    “How can organizations remain open to the fresh perspectives that outsiders bring? The challenge lies not only in identifying original thinkers but also in empowering them - amplifying their voices, supporting their efforts, and fostering environments where atypical ideas can take root and thrive.”

    It’s crucial to combine

  8. I think possibly what has given some people such a bad impression of #DEI / #DEIB / #DEIA is that some proponents of it, largely intersecting with social media keyboard warriors, have taken it as a license to act like bullies at work.

    DEI is not a pass to bully your coworkers.

    I have had someone try to bully me solely because I'm a white guy (and she wrongly assumed heterosexual). She thought this made me fair game to "call me out" for daring to participate in a DEI community. Note that I had said nothing even remotely offensive: she just thought I shouldn't be there.

    Her attacking me in direct messages nearly reached the point where I was going to tell her if she wanted to continue the conversation, we could do it with HR present, but I was able to disarm her by telling her we simply weren't going to agree on the subject.

  9. Gibt es Unternehmen die Vorbildlich im Bezug auf #Diversity sind ?

    Und wie misst man das? Verdacht/Idee: schauen, wie WENIG weiße able Männer (mensche wie ich also) dort sind , in Führungspositionen, Belegschaft und vielleicht auch Eigentümerschaft... ?

    Kann sicher nicht die alkeinige Metrik sein, aber vielleicht ein gutes Indiz?

  10. CW: Diversity , Firmendarstellung

    Apropos of nothing: bin ich heute mal wieder auf den #valantic-Link gegangen. Ich sehe jetzt: eine Mensch im Rollstuhl (ganz oben, rundes Bild) und 2 mal asiatisch gelesene Frauen.
    Sonst nix, was ich als #divers erkenne.

  11. 🔄 Reorganizing initiatives in #WordPress: Should #DEIB, #5ftF, and Mentorship move to the Sustainability team?
    🌱 How can we educate that Sustainability is broader than just the environment, including social and economic issues?

  12. People who are not members of any minority group have no idea how exhausting it can be just to try to fulfill the desire to exist consistently.

  13. I see Mr. Jue's announcement as a further indication of the "aging out" of #amateurradio and a reason for us to redouble our efforts to increase #diversity in the hobby. #DEI #DEIB

  14. #MustRead: How does GitHub enable #DeveloperProductivity at the scale of 30 Billion messages a day? How does it extreme dogfood (octocatfood?) #DevEx for 85% of devs? I was privileged to have a long chat with Akshaya Aradhya including on #DEIB, #RemoteWork, and #Neurodiversity as an essential part of the #DeveloperExperience.

  15. In May I had an opportunity to attend the Linux Foundation with 3 of my coworkers. I loved my time with the JavaScript foundation OpenJS, Community Health CHAOSS Project, the track, and open source leadership areas like .

  16. Your routine reminder that #DEIB is not a free license to bully individual people.

    It's a strategy for dismantling discriminatory structures in institutions.

    It's a way of ensuring that otherwise-silenced voices have an opportunity to be heard.

    It's not a pretty stick to hit your coworkers or classmates with.

  17. A friend of mine tagged me on a recent #LinkedIn post about White-identifying #EDI practitioners not doing enough as opposed to us who are from the #GlobalMajority. We have been doing this work for a while now and it never seems to be enough to #organizational leaders. Something has to give. If you haven't seen the post, here it is.
