Reshma Saujani: Teach Girls Bravery, Not Perfection (2016x45)

Air date: Mar 07, 2016

We're raising our girls to be perfect, and we're raising our boys to be brave, says Reshma Saujani, the founder of Girls Who Code. Saujani has taken up the charge to socialize young girls to take risks and learn to program - two skills they need to move society forward. To truly innovate, we cannot leave behind half of our population, she says. 'I need each of you to tell every young woman you know to be comfortable with imperfection.'
