Women In Product London — Diversity: a product manager’s secret weapon

Women in Product London recently held their second event on how using diversity in design, build and within teams can help ship more successful products.

Attendees were treated to some fantastic speakers including Samantha Edgar, Tammy Wallace, Gen Ashley, Caz Brett and Sereena Abbassi. Each speaker shared personal and honest insights into their experience within the industry, as well as providing useful tips on how to challenge diversity and inclusion in their workplace.

Topics that resonated with attendees included the recognition that working with leadership will be required to change the status quo, product managers need to understand the intersections and variables that make up diversity in order to empathise with users and getting other women involved in technology even in small ways can make a big difference.

The event was generously sponsored by HSBC Digital and Google London.
