@judyhalpern what ever happened to https://t.co/tAZU8Ql3zE? I referred some colleges to it, but it's no longer up? Is there an alternative way for them to access it?

@jefferiesshow thought about leaving the fresh sidewalk alone, but ended up embedding a coin in the cement. #AlmostDidGood

I applaud @Manulife for donating 10k to Ladies Learning Code!

[Dave Clarke @DavidClarkeHR]

That's a lot of money being donated to ladies learning to code! I wonder if they get the giant 10k check, too.

Surprise! Middle aged white male closing the gender diversity panel. One cool comment? Joining manulife has made him a minority in the room.

Both @johnath and @CarolynVan talk about having something to demonstrate as a way to get their foot in the door.

Words for thought: imagine you're so easily mistaken for a man that people treat you as one.

Question for @cindylforbes : is there an opportunity for corporations to get involved in promoting tech in schools? YES! Manulife does this.

[Dave Clarke @DavidClarkeHR]

How do you measure success in diversity efforts? MANY ways: employee engagement, attrition, team success.

[Dave Clarke @DavidClarkeHR]

GREAT USE of tech for anti harassment!!! https://t.co/Iv4rLxbsoC

[Dave Clarke @DavidClarkeHR]

According to @CarolynVan, tech clubs don't often contain girls. We can teach girls to find other girls and join the club together.

[Dave Clarke @DavidClarkeHR]

Also, when it comes to tech education, don't let technology become the barrier to thinking critically and 'computationally thinking'

[Dave Clarke @DavidClarkeHR]

Question for @CarolynVan : how do we structure education? Well, break down the stereotypes, then show that it can be possible AND fun

[Dave Clarke @DavidClarkeHR]

From @johnath : there's two ways to approach diversity: intake (interview panel, trans bathrooms), and 'to believe women'.

What's important is that when young girls enter this field, they should feel like they belong - Lee Ann Murray, CIO @Manulife #LOFTPresents
