Bhavika Jagoowani
Talent Partner, Element AI“In a time of unprecedented change and increasing competition, developing and enabling
diverse leaders is critical for modern organizations to thrive. Fostering diversity and inclusion
is one of the best ways organizations can disrupt themselves – I call it disrupting with
diversity. In technology, diversity is especially critical to spark new ideas and drive creativity.”
