Lean in: Software Developer Diversity and Inclusion (SDDI)
summary
SDDI relaunches a Linux Foundation project (started July 2021) that measures industry gaps, tests practices, and builds tools: 2020 survey shows 91% men, 7% women, 1% non‑binary (2020) and followup reaches 70,000 responses (2022); working groups cover neurodiversity, DEIA best practices, and a talent pipeline, aiming to publish evidence from surveys and interviews, produce manager/employee training, a community testimonial site, and a Clearinghouse; claims include neurodivergent teams being ~30% more productive and autism-linked task focus up to 75% productivity; not doing job placement or diagnoses.
