Nearly a decade ago, I convinced my wife to sell everything we owned, stuff the rest of our belongings in storage, and buy one-way tickets to New Zealand when our daughter was 10 months old to take a careercation. While living out of two suitcases and visiting six countries, I was inspired to start TINYpulse with the simple idea that happier employees make happier parents, partners, children, ...
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I) efforts have really accelerated and taken off in recent years. In a 2021 survey of over 400 human resources managers, over 50% rated DE&I as a top priority for their organizations. Furthermore, our research surveyed over 1,000 employees corroborates this trend, and 73% of respondents shared that their organizations are committed to diversity.
Employees who were hired during the COVID-19 pandemic are struggling to get connected in the social fabric and culture of organizations in ways that may not be easily observed. This cohort is providing 34% less peer recognition than their counterparts from the previous year. What’s more, they are 20% less likely to acknowledge company values by tagging values to the recognition they do provide.
Transcribing an interview is sometimes a chore, but often reveals something new about the initial conversation. Transcribing an interview with Sage Quiamno is not a chore. The Future For Us co-founder asks as many questions as she answers, an approach that makes sense when you realize that the platform centering women of color just launched this year.
When you're putting out your first-ever Gender Equity Report, like TINYpulse is this week, it's always good to talk to someone with a doctorate in Diversity, Inclusion, and Innovation. Dr. Sarah Saska not only matches that description, she gave us some really helpful advice: to make sure our research didn't encourage the homogenization of women in the workforce.
Katerina Trajchevska is a busy woman. The CEO and founder of Adeva also makes time to speak at conferences, mentor women in tech, and blog about her experiences. We felt lucky to get on her calendar!

TINYcon is now in its third year. It’s getting bigger, better, and remains a truly unique conference experience. If you need convincing - or approval to attend - here are the top reasons to ensure you attend TINYcon 2018. It's Wednesday, September 12th through Friday, September 14th at the Seattle Marriott Waterfront.
Interviewing Aidan Fitzpatrick is an exercise in forgetting your next question. The founder and CEO of Reincubate, Fitzpatrick is equal parts storyteller, showman, and data geek, which leaves me repeatedly checking my notes after he pursues a fascinating tangent. Reincubate itself qualifies as a fascinating tangent. Now ten years old, “the app data company” was founded when Fitzpatrick couldn't find a solution to recover data from his damaged phone. He built the world’s first tool for iOS data recovery; a decade later, millions use Reincubate’s products to extract and recover data that would otherwise be lost forever. As a small tech company, Reincubate prides itself on being “Lean” - it’s one of their core values. The London-based team ships product updates constantly to keep pace with all the ways people can use - and lose - data.
To say that Heather Younger, J.D., has a diverse skillset would be an understatement. She’s an in-demand speaker, a Leadership Warrior, one of our favorite authors to cite, and a highly recommended LinkedIn follow. If Heather hadn’t sent along a concise bio for our TINYcon website, I might still be writing it.
