FEATURED IN

Spotlight Series 2023

Extract from November 2023 She Can Code – Spotlight Series Feature:

“My current role as an Application Development Manager was not exactly planned.  I love to code so I had every intention of being an Senior Android developer for a long time once I moved into the TfL Go development team (a new in-house mobile development team) after pivoting from backend development in 2018.  Mobile  development gave me the best of both worlds, working on something that challenges my coding and problem solving skills, and also allowing me to develop something visually pleasing and likely to make a difference to a lot of people in the public. 

I reluctantly moved into my current role in 2022 to focus on delivering the Software Development Apprentice and Graduate schemes. As much as I missed coding, I also realised I needed to be in a higher level role to have a bigger influence over recruiting entry level employees from diverse backgrounds and helping them to develop their careers to become professional software developers within 2 years.”

Daisy Corporate Services UK

Daisy Corporates Services reached out to secure our professional speaking services to inspire their women employees and allys across their organisation.

During our discovery call it was highlighted that there was a lack of women in tech related roles and also many employees struggling with imposter syndrome, so it was requested that these issues be addressed during the talk.

Dionne delivered her keynote talk Journey To The App for 250 employees located around the UK and Europe. She shared an authentic story on her Tech Career Journey from the beginning to where her career is to date, some of the challenges she has faced and how she overcame them (especially her own experience on imposter syndrome), and some of the key lessons she learned during this rollercoaster of a career journey. She also shared some insights and stats on the level of gender diversity in the tech industry and what companies can do to encourage more women into the tech industry.

There was great interaction from their employees during the virtual talk, and it was amazing to find out the different types of roles people are doing, length of time working at the company, and whether they classed themselves as a techie or non-techie.

The employees were inspired to reflect on their own tech career journey, and how they can play their part in improving diversity in tech.
