"We need to promote, amplify, champion, and support women leaders. You can have all the beautiful policy and rhetoric in the world, but if you don’t have role models embodying the culture in leadership positions, there is an inherent disconnect." ✨👏💥 https://t.co/s4PbK0QZZq
Last Friday, Robogals’ CEO Ami Pasricha co-chaired the Education Forum at the International Conference on Robotics and Automation. The conference was led by Dr. Alex Zelinsky, Chief Defence Scientist of Australia. 3,000 field experts attended the conference this year.
“I encourage my team to set goals they might not reach, to try new things that might not work, to stop worrying about perfection. Learning to code involves a whole lot of failure — & through that, you learn how to be brave.”

"When US children are asked to draw a scientist, today roughly one in three will doodle a woman. That’s a major shift since the 1960s and 1970s, when fewer than 1 in 100 kids would depict a female scientist."
Here's to progress!
