In my role as a male Chief Information Officer (CIO), I've realised that fostering allyship within our technology, data, and innovation teams at Miller is not just about implementing policies, but also about leading by example.

The tech industry's commitment to diversity often focuses on gender and ethnicity, but what about socio-economic diversity? In our recently launched ‘Diversity in Tech’ report, we found that only 1 in 3 tech companies are tracking socio-economic diversity, mirroring the makeup of elite professions such as journalism.

Neurodiversity is the natural variation in human brain function and development. It encompasses a wide range of conditions, including but not limited to ADHD/ADD, autism (ASD), dyslexia, Tourette's syndrome, and bipolar disorder. Individuals with neurodivergent conditions have diverse ways of thinking, learning, and communicating. They also bring unique strengths and talents to the workplace, such as innovative thinking, problem-solving skills, creativity, and attention to detail.

Men's health has long been obscured by societal expectations and stereotypes, often leaving men feeling unsupported and vulnerable. However, Movember and International Men's Day present us with a unique opportunity to change this narrative. While these observances raise awareness about health issues, they also celebrate men's contributions to our lives and society.

It's not news that the Tech Talent Charter (TTC) is on a mission to bring together organisations to drive greater diversity and inclusion in the world of technology. We firmly believe that through intentional action, we can arrest the current trend of women leaving the tech workforce. Just 28% of the UK tech workforce are women, and when you look at senior tech role holders, gender diversity decreases even further, dropping by 6 points to 22%. And that’s why leading tech brands are coming together to bring that intentionality and orientation towards action to life.

Earlier this month, we hosted another instalment of our Diversity in Tech roadshow in Leeds, sponsored by Channel 4. The event brought together senior leaders from tech companies, tech professionals and advocates for diversity and inclusion (D&I). 

In the rapidly evolving tech industry, one of the biggest challenges we face is growing talent. Enter diversity and inclusion. There’s no doubt that this is paramount for fostering innovation, driving creativity, and achieving sustainable success.

Women are severely underrepresented in the tech industry, especially at the top. In the UK, women make up just 17% of the tech workforce overall and hold just 5% of leadership positions. The outlook is even bleaker for ethnic minority women. It’s an issue that Applied’s CEO, Khyati Sundaram, is all too familiar with.
