Jodi McDermott

Jodi McDermott is 20+ years into a successful career in product and often found herself as the only woman in the room early on in her career. When her male boss at USATODAY.com championed her development, she not only fast-tracked her career, but learned a valuable lesson: we all own diversity. Today Jodi is the Chief Product Officer at Dude Solutions and 1 of 4 women at the c-suite. While there is still progress to be made, today's room looks much different, proving that diverse teams bring perspective and ultimately build better products.
