Founded by supermodel Karlie Kloss, Kode With Klossy teaches young women and gender expansive youth how to code. The organization supports a community of 11,000 from 100-plus countries over more than a decade to ensure their education is effective. CEO Osi Imeokparia shares how long-term support and mentorship for diverse young coders can lead to success in computer science majors and careers in technology. She and Dani Lucas of McKinsey & Company also address the need for shifts in the industry to tackle the "broken rung" of the tech career ladder, which results in women and underrepresented workers facing challenges in promotions and upward advancement.
