189: Ethics, AI, and Being a Woman in Tech in 2024

It’s time for an important discussion about AI and the role we need to be playing in 2024 as women in the tech industry.

In today’s episode, I invite Sonal Shah, Barclays Vice President, coach, and author of Amazon bestseller “She Chose Tech”, to discuss her non-traditional background and journey to tech and how you can leverage allies, mentors & sponsors to thrive in your tech leadership career. We dive into topics like closing the gap for women in tech and how to tackle the current AI leadership problem in our industry. 

Ready for the resiliency tools you need to thrive during the surge of AI and break barriers as a woman in this male-dominated industry?

We dive into:

  • Sonal’s non-traditional background and journey to the tech industry and senior leadership
  • The lack of diversity in AI leadership
  • Closing the gap for women in tech
  • How to play the long game of sponsorship
  • The power of networking to overcome a non-traditional background
  • And more
