Black Men in Tech: Ambitious, Driven, & Thriving in the C-suite

About This Webinar

It’s estimated that Black employees comprise only 12% of the US workforce, but only 8% hold tech jobs, and even fewer Black professionals occupy executive leadership positions across many tech organizations.

Holding a middle-management or entry-level position in tech comes with varying benefits. Still, Black professionals have more to gain as they ascend the executive leadership suite- higher salary, influence, greater decision-making power, freedom to make impactful changes, and the ability to wield more significant social capital cushioned by other lux long-term economic and career benefits.
