Allyship Actually - First public review

ALLYSHIP ACTUALLY - Why its 'we' and not 'me'

Writing the book was a labour of love and 'need' for Lucy Grimwade and me, so to see that first feedback come in was a heart-in-the-mouth moment.

Here it is, in full. 

Allyship Actually is an incredibly thought provoking book, that I’d especially love to see people in IT read.

As a woman with 25 years in IT, I saw my own experiences in several of the characters….but the biggest impact was how different the story becomes when we embrace “allyship” with our colleagues. What’s possible when we understand and support each other and our unique challenges.

Maybe - just maybe - there doesn’t need to be a Battle of the Sexes at all!

Lucy Grimwade and David Barrow, CITP FBCS have put together something really special.

Great personal read or team book study.
