Building High-performing, Diverse Teams
summary
Practical, measurable steps: set targets (example goal 50/50 women in tech and 10% Black/Latinx tied to leadership performance); build pipelines via boot camp mentoring, apprenticeships and remote hires; eliminate bias with standardized interview rubrics, project-based assessments, interview panels including outsiders and diverse slates; track top-of-funnel metrics and hold execs accountable; address mental health and childcare, schedule no‑meeting or rest days, and use tools like GlobeSmart for cross‑culture collaboration.
