Then in 2009, Tayloe Stansbury joined the company as CTO. Female coders figure big in his life, starting with his mother and extending to his wife and three daughters. He recognized that real progress can\u2019t happen with just a grassroots effort \u2013 it needs executive support.<\/p>\n<p>Fast-forward eight years and Tech Women @ Intuit is in full swing, led by program manager Tracy Stone. And it\u2019s not just something she does in her spare cycles \u2013 it\u2019s her fulltime job. TWI, as we call it, is dedicated to attracting, retaining and advancing technical women. The group runs a steady stream of programs, including sponsorship of top female talent by leaders, development workshops and peer mentoring. TWI also invests in building the pipeline of future female technologists, supporting organizations like Girls Who Code.<\/p>\n<p>TWI is the driving force behind Intuit\u2019s annual presence at the Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing, or GHC, the world\u2019s largest gathering of women technologists. Each year we send 100+ employees to the event to recruit, give talks, attend sessions and connect with other technical women. The energy at GHC is so high that attendees are still buzzing days after it\u2019s over.<\/p>\n<p>I wanted to capture that energy in a video that highlights Intuit\u2019s involvement at GHC as well as our broader TWI initiative. As you\u2019ll see, Intuit is a pretty awesome place for technical women.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the many reasons I love working at Intuit \u2013 and having been here for 23 years, I must love it \u2013 is that it scratches a big itch of mine.
