Come and meet us at this year's DevOps World 2023! We're returning with our final panel session on 'Belonging in DevOps: The Importance of Intersectionality.' ❤️ 🌈 ✨
The term intersectionality is the idea that people have more than one identity, and these identities are often inherently combined. Forbes (2021) previously noted that diverse teams make better decisions 87% of the time over non-diverse teams, shifting broader perspectives and wider knowledge to the foreground. This can result in greater success for organisations, as well as improved productivity and greater opportunity to achieve success on a global scale.
This talk will discuss intersectionality while uncovering the different types of intersectionality which are often overlooked by organisations. We shall also discuss tips, advice and best practices for DevOps professionals hoping to implement intersectional goals and make tangible changes within their organisations.
Our panel will include:
Lauren Langdell - Founder, Host and Chair at Women in DevOps
Sabrina Battiston - US Co-Founder at Women in DevOps
Prakriti Karthauser - Sr. Platform Engineering Manager at Vodafone
Oge Opara-Nadi - Head of Developer Experience at 10x Banking
Cheryl Razzell - Head of Compute Solution Architecture at Amazon Web Services (AWS)
