I am currently a student at Stanford University studying Public Policy, African-American Studies, and Computer Science. I am especially interested in the ways that organizations create (or fail to create) inclusive spaces for employees to thrive. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in; margin-bottom: .0001pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman';\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in; margin-bottom: .0001pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman';\">When I first arrived at Mozilla I met with Dino to find out how I may contribute to the Diversity &amp; Inclusion Strategy. After taking some time to refine my ideas with both Dino and <a href=\"https:\/\/mozillians.org\/en-US\/u\/Mardi\/\">Mardi<\/a>, I came across the Roadblocks to Productivity survey, which highlighted the need for Mozilla to refine and improve its modes of communication. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in; margin-bottom: .0001pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman';\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in; margin-bottom: .0001pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman';\">To that end, I will be helping with a <a href=\"https:\/\/wiki.mozilla.org\/Diversity_and_Inclusion_Strategy#Initiatives\">Diversity and Inclusion Initiative <\/a>and <a href=\"https:\/\/wiki.mozilla.org\/People:removing_roadblocks_to_productivity\">Removing Roadblocks to Productivity<\/a> by conducting research into staff use of Yammer \u2014 How do we use it? What draws in regular users or pushes away inactive users? Is it an inclusive space? My project will try to gather useful community feedback and social listening data to accurately assess Yammer\u2019s role within Mozilla. Ultimately, I hope this research will be a useful resource for both initiatives as they work to continue making Mozilla an amazing place to work.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in; margin-bottom: .0001pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman';\">Next week I will put up an etherpad with a few short questions for community feedback.
