What is the Strategic Engineering Diversity Programs course about?
Most DEI initiatives fail in engineering because they’re designed for general workforce populations, not technical teams with asynchronous workflows, global talent pools, and project-based delivery cycles. Without a tailored approach, efforts become performative, misaligned with sprint rhythms, and disconnected from hiring, promotion, and code review systems.
