Interviews

We recently sat down with EDUCO co-owner, Chris Mickens to have an honest conversation about what it's like to be a black woman leader in the tech industry. Watch this 3-minute video to learn why representation was so important in her own journey and to find out what actions EDUCO plans to take to help increase diversity in our field.

"Diversity" has been a hot topic in the tech community ever since the conversation was ignited by some not-so-stellar reports coming out of major companies in 2016. At DrupalCon Baltimore, the Drupal Association made its first dedicated effort to increase diversity, and I interviewed Chris Rooney, President and Founder of Digital Bridge Solutions, to hear his thoughts on the issue and what we as agency owners can contribute.

In this post we asked two former EDUCO prospective clients what they thought about our team and why they chose to go in a different direction. Technically we asked more than two, but these were the only ones to respond.
