Book Details: Book Title: Women of Color in Tech: A Blueprint for Inspiring and Mentoring the Next Generation of Technology Innovators by Susanne Tedrick Category: Adult Non-Fiction, 18 yrs +, 288 pages Genre: Business, Careers, Technology Publisher: Wiley Release date: April, 2020 Tour dates: June 22 to July 10, 2020 Content Rating: PG. Book Description: Tech industry jobs are growing fast, offering great pay, career growth and learning opportunities. Women of color, sadly, have not been able to fully participate in this boom. There are many misconceptions about the tech industry. Misconceptions can often discourage women of color from pursuing or remaining in technical careers. For example, misconceptions like “tech careers are all about coding ”or “there’s no diversity in tech.” In reality, tech career opportunities can be diverse, fun, and incredibly dynamic. While there are barriers to overcome, Women of Color in Tech is an indispensable resource for building a rewarding future in tech. Packed with inspiring stories and practical advice, this book shows you how to uncover the resources you need to succeed. This practical guide will help you develop the blend of knowledge and skills needed for getting into tech—and staying there. Author Susanne Tedrick understands that, for a variety of reasons, young women of color are underrepresented in tech and may not have access to strong support networks or resources to be successful. Using her own experiences transitioning into tech, Susanne offers you real-world guidance on finding knowledgeable mentors, learning the latest industry trends, cultivating strong relationships and more. If you’re thinking about going into tech, or you want to take your current career to the next level, Women of Color in Tech will help you build a blueprint for a successful career. • Understand the reality of tech today, not misconceptions. • Learn about the different tech jobs and opportunities that exist, not just coding. • Gain an understanding of emerging technology areas that will affect jobs, like artificial intelligence, Blockchain and cloud computing. • Discover traditional and non-traditional education option to get the skills you need. • Find mentors, build your professional network and get the guidance you need. • Stay motivated and deal with difficult situations. • Recognize the importance of giving back to increase diversity and inclusion.

Every twenty years a new generation rises, but who and what defines these generations? And could current generational tags mislead and miss the point?

Within GenTech, readers learn how every generation uniquely interacts with particular technologies that define historical temperament and personality and why current generational labels are more fluid than fixed, and more loopy than linear. Consequently, three major generational constellations emerge, each containing four, twenty-year generations that overlap, merge, and blend:
