Allyship Is Only About Gender and Race

Misconception: Some people believe that allyship in tech leadership exclusively revolves around gender and race. Reality: True allyship extends beyond these dimensions to include sexual orientation, disability, age, socioeconomic status, and more. It's about fostering an inclusive environment for all underrepresented and marginalized groups. Addressing It: Encourage leaders to broaden their understanding of diversity beyond the visible aspects. Initiatives and training that cover a wide range of diversity points can help in building a more inclusive culture.
