We are an app vendor with 50% women on the team and we don't think it's a coincidence

Genevieve (Refined Partner Manager) September 12, 2018

Hi all, 

After some encouragement from the Community team I met with at Atlassian Summit, I thought you might be interested in an article published recently on the Atlassian Community. The article covers how our team at RefinedWiki changed from being an all male tech team and all male company to being a gender balanced company with 44% women on the tech team.

Happy reading :)

Thank you for sharing this, @Genevieve (Refined Partner Manager) - I immediately sent it directly over to my regional HR director; they are constantly discussing how we can better face the challenge of diversity. She loved to hear how you guys are overcoming that, and is sharing it throughout the HR team and tech managers; I hope to come back and tell you how much impact it has in our future!
