I’m excited that General Dunwoody is joining the Automattic board: not just for the new perspective to help bring different ideas, but also for how important diversity is to her.
Personally, I’ve found that my work is only improved when I’m working with a diverse group of people, who don’t think, or act, or look like… well, me! The tech industry as a whole suffers from a myopic lack of diversity: if Automattic can help improve that, then I’m proud to play my part.
