About the Book: In Rebooting Tech Culture, Telle Whitney exposes a troubling paradox: although many tech leaders claim to value diversity, they perpetuate exclusion by venerating the myth of the male “lone genius.” Drawing on interviews with over 50 tech executives and a survey of 1,000 professionals, she reveals how the same values that fuel innovation—creativity, courage, confidence, curiosity, communication, and community (the “six Cs”)—can build inclusive organizations where everyone belongs. With practical guidance and real-world examples, Whitney shows how embedding these values into everyday behavior can dismantle toxic norms and create workplaces where both belonging and innovation flourish
