Women represent 31% of the UK tech workforce and just 10% of its leadership roles. So what can we do to improve this?
Joy Foster, Founder of Techpixies is on a mission to help thousands of women upskill with social media so that they can return to work, change careers or start their own business. Since 2015 she and her colleagues have helped 5,000 women grow their tech skills. She joins us to discuss the unique qualities that women bring to working in technology and how to create a more inclusive workforce.
Paul and Zoe discuss the latest tech news, including a new film about microaggressions, and how ‘joyscrolling’ can help you find happiness online.
