Diversity and Inclusion

We are all great witches and wizards but in the first place – humans. Let’s use the most powerful magic, ⭐humanity⭐,  to embrace diversity and inclusion!

At DynamicsMinds we strive to respect, value and treat everyone fairly regardless of their race, age, gender, religion, disability, education, nationality, ethnicity, sexual orientation, social status or anything else.

Bring your own perspective to DynamicsMinds! The magic grows stronger with diversity 💪

Panels and Sessions

Speaker: Areti Iles


How diverse is your IT team? The Tech Industry often carries misconceptions as to who it consists of with the stereotype being geeky introverts and mainly male. But the reality really is quite different – the IT industry and particularly the world of Microsoft partners, the Microsoft Community and those working within Dynamics 365 and the Power Platform is diverse, global and full of individuals from different bakcgrounds and age groups. And yet there are myths that deter women from joining (and staying) within the IT Industry when they really are not true at all. Join me as I share my own experiences and go through the 9 myths I’ve seen hold us back , why they shouldn’t and what we can all do to dispel them.

Speaker:Tricia Sinclair


The tech industry has historically lacked diversity and inclusivity, particularly for black people. We created a program called the Power Platform School to address this issue by training black adults on the Power Platform, providing mentorship and training, and placing them in technical positions at Microsoft Partners.

In this session we will discuss the importance of diversity and inclusion in the tech industry and the positive impact it can have on innovation, creativity, and profitability.

we will explore lessons we learned on our path to creating our program, what our program features today and we will showcase the impact of program from the point of view of the different volunteers, partners and participants.

Furthermore, we will discuss how you can promote diversity and inclusion in the tech industry by:

Providing a pathway for underrepresented individuals to enter the industry and build successful careers.
Offering mentorship and support to help participants overcome barriers and succeed in technical roles.
Increasing diversity and inclusivity in the tech industry by placing participants in technical positions at Microsoft Partners.
Becoming a volunteer to different programs similar to the Power Platform School.

Host: Patricia Maia & Elena Baeva

Women in Dynamics

The almighty ⭐witches⭐ of Dynamics 365 and Power Platform Community, with unlimited magical power and strength.

Promoting inclusivity in the Dynamics Community

Women in Dynamics brings together the entire community, regardless of gender, age, experience, or background. It’s our mission to shape the Dynamics community into the most diverse & inclusive community in the World. We strongly believe everyone deserves a great career in Dynamics.

There are many communities that support women to proactively apply for tech roles, build skills and grow within their organizations. Our goals with Women in Dynamics are different. We want to grow all-up diversity in the Dynamics community, with an initial focus on the gender gap. Identify & understand the challenges in our community so we can help drive positive change and increase the representation of women in C-level positions in the Dynamics community to at least 30% in each business.
