Mary will share her experience in the growth of Equality Groups at Salesforce, and will discuss how the groups began and eventually grew to include 10 groups! 

Mary will touch upon:

• First Equality Group  - Women in Tech

• The beginnings of Outforce, V2MOM for Boldforce

• Expanding focus from a group's own problems to supporting others
