Diverse, inclusive teams make better business decisions than homogenous teams 87% of the time. Yet despite these clear competitive advantages, research shows STEM fields continue to lag behind other industries when it comes to minority representation.
Black and Hispanic workers are highly underrepresented in data science fields, respectively making up just 8% and 9% of the STEM workforce. Women, meanwhile, account for 25% or fewer workers in computing and engineering careers
As our world becomes more data-driven, companies are increasingly leaning on data professionals to inform and influence these decisions. However, the world’s data and decision workforce is alarmingly non-diverse, leaving a large swath of perspectives and experience untapped.

The inaugural Anaplan for All cohort minted 45 new Anaplan Model Builders, who emerged into the workforce ready to hit the ground running, thanks in large part to the guidance and support of scores of mentors from the company who stepped up to volunteer their time.
