Diversity in data: Modeling a better future for data teams | Census
Blog post from Census
The data industry has a homogeneity problem, with many teams lacking diversity in terms of gender, racial, and ethnic makeup. However, there is growing recognition that diversity is crucial for innovation, financial returns, and revenue. To foster diversity, companies need to start from the C-suite level and take action to recruit, retain, and mentor diverse employees. Key recommendations include looking beyond usual candidate pools, encouraging people from other career fields to transition into tech, and removing gatekeeping requirements from job descriptions. By taking these steps, companies can create a more inclusive and innovative data team, leading to better business outcomes.
