Women in Technology Book Study

Fri. May 15, 2026 | 8:00 am - Tue. June 30, 2026 | 11:45 am CDT

Join fellow educators and technology leaders for collaborative learning experience that explores challenges facing women in technology through three recent nonfiction books:

      • “The Broken Rung: When the Career Ladder Breaks for Women-And How They Can Succeed in Spite of It” by Kweilin Ellingrud, Lareina Yee, and Maria del Mar Martinez
      • “Chief in Tech: How Women Are Breaking the Silicon Ceiling and Leading with Impact” by Anna Radulovski and Ivo Radulovsk
      • “The Empathy Advantage: Leading the Empowered Workforce” by Chris Shipley and Heather E. McGowan

Through guided discussions, shared insights, and meaningful connections, we’ll discover how these stories can inspire and empower the next generation of tech leaders.

Participants will engage through the LTC Community and Zoom meetups. These discussions are ongoing, so you can start reading and join in at any time.
