Welcome to the Be Bold Podcast. This new series goes beyond technology to focus on the people behind the innovation, and shines a spotlight on those driving change. From leaders to engineers and everyone involved in the process of innovation, the series brings engaging conversations about life in tech, its challenges and how to be bold in order to succeed.

In this episode we welcome our first guest, Chris Young, Executive Vice President - Business Development, Strategy and Ventures at Microsoft. In this episode, we talk “Workforce Diversity”. This continues to be a tough challenge for technology companies across the board. Leaders understand the value of having a diversified workforce and how different points of view can be critical to the innovation process. However, finding the talent can be like a needle in a haystack. We discuss the challenges young people of diverse backgrounds face and explore ways how to get them interested in tech earlier in life. We’ll also discuss how to empower a diversified workforce once you have them in the building.
