Diversity is only gender? There is good number of Asians ,mainly Indians and Chinese working in technology sector. You have to represent them in leadership . What about veteran etc.
That's true. Diversity is about much more than gender. But also as a good leader you should hire the right person for the job. I speak from bad experience when I say don't hire just for diversity. Hiring a disabled, multi-racial, lesbian and transgender front end engineer who cannot use JavaScript might look good on paper, but the white boy from oxford with 16 years professional experience producing enterprise applications in react native might be a better hire.
@@jameshamilton3348 Totally agree with you it’s much more than gender and also don’t just hire just to meet diversity goals , that person has to be qualified with experience .
You say any crap with a straight face and it seems to make sense. That HR lady gave typical behavioral questions as examples and its so easy to get swayed by that BS.
@@praveensg I could not help but notice the power moves demonstrated by the ones on the right with the instinctive subconscious mic grabbing game masterfully played.
I don't know who you mean by left two as there profiles we're not the same as the seating arrangement but I found Eric Kaplan and the women (the people in the middle) made the most sense. Ps technically that sentence was correct because you added to in front of whom but for future reference skip the whom and just use who. When it's used oddly or in a sentence it doesn't flow right like this one it puts of the whole flow of the sentence. When in doubt just us who.
Thanks , CTO is the best choice for me , as building engineer and urbanist who works on aware cities in optic , computer science . CTO , in teams , is a good choice in small teams .
This is a really great video. The real key take away for me was Eric Kaplan. You can really tell wealth of experience and sage wisdom. The other offered a lot of current and fresh pointers but Eric was evergreen and pure gold!
Next week we're releasing a podcast with Paul Dix (CTO & Founder @ InfluxData, maker of InfluxDB) who's on the executive team with Eric. Definitely another great conversation to check out
