Btw, on the team at @codeorg 62% are women. The leadership: 55% women. Our tech staff: 51% women, Our extended team of facilitators: 66% women. Our teachers: 86% women. Our work wouldn't be possible without these amazing women. #WomensHistoryMonth

I love what you have accomplished and I've really hesitated before replying but to be fair your senior leadership is mostly men. CEO, COO, CTO, CAO, Senior Engineering manager, Director of Finance are all men.

While I can't speak for @EdTechPatty, I don't think she was "going after" him. She was stating a fact. People in leadership have choices with who they hire. @hadip has decided to keep his leadership all men. Next opening, hire a woman.

If you completely ignore all the women on our leadership team, esp @AliceSteinglass who manages most of the men at @codeorg, then indeed it would be fact to say the “senior leadership is mostly men.” However, when you choose to count the women, the opposite is true.

I prefer to count the women. The majority of leadership at @codeorg are women. The majority of our tech team. The majority of our facilitators. The majority of our teachers.

What’s more: thanks to these women, the overwhelming majority of the almost 40M students on @codeorg are young women and students of color. Nobody has achieved diversity at this scale in CS before.
