In their participation in Jobbspr\u00e5nget, VOI shares their ambition to foster diverse teams and enhance competence in the tech sector &#8211; It has created a very nice and inclusive culture, he states.<\/h2>\n<h3><strong>Why did VOI decide to join Jobbspr\u00e5nget?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>VOI is a very diverse company, we all have different backgrounds and cultures, spread out all over Europe. We thought that this is something that we must pay attention to. I like having diversified teams, IT is mainly male-dominated and that can get very one sided. I like to diversify the team more to get broader input to everything.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Why did you want to become a mentor?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>I have experienced people that have had struggles entering the job market. I know that these people are super good, but there is something holding them back. It may either be that they haven\u2019t worked in Sweden before, their names or something else. I think it\u2019s such a missed opportunity to have people that have great knowledge and can contribute to our company and not even be given a chance.<\/p>\n<p>Having that as a background and thinking of ways of having a win-win situations for both the participants and VOI, I think it was very good to join the initiative.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Tell us about your participant! How has she contributed to the team? <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Mani is our IT Infrastructure Specialist. She has a very good background from lots of heavy companies such as IBM. She brings a lot of structure and organisation to the team which is a great aspect since we have a very young team. We do things quite fast sometimes and it&#8217;s good to have someone that has that in mind.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What has been the best part of the programme?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The best part has been the knowledge I have gotten from them. It has created a very nice and inclusive culture, and I think that everyone in the team has grown from it. It&#8217;s an important part that often is overseen. It is not about technical parts or about who has the best knowledge, but about how the team is doing. And I think our team has thrived from taking this people in.<\/p>\n<p><b>Learn more about the programme and how to participate <a href=\"https:\/\/jobbspranget.se\/employers\/how-to-participate\/\">here<\/a>. <\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In an industry known to be one-sided, VOI&#8217;s IT manager, Alex Tsarapatsanis, recognises the importance of diversifying his teams.
