There is a lot of talk today about how women have been held back in business, and particularly in tech. Well, I wanted to look into this and find out what is really going on today. So, I asked three women who I admire greatly, and who are very successful in tech and business to join me for this interview.
My guests in this interview are Alla Driksne who is right here with us on Steemit as @allasyummyfood. She is originally from Latvia and went to England at age 14 not speaking English. She not only learned English but also worked hard to get into and graduate from the London School of Economics.
Lori Spivey did very well in science and math in high school, in spite of the opposition she had (listen to her story about this). She graduated from the University of Florida, worked with Proctor & Gamble, then went on to get her MBA from Harvard Business School. She worked for many years at Boston Consulting Group and now helps with entrepreneurial ventures and aid to Africa.
Gina Carr holds a Bachelors degree from Georgia Tech in Industrial Engineering and also earned her Masters in Business Administration from Harvard Business School. She is known as the Tribe Builder and uses her expertise in tech and business to help her clients succeed in their businesses.
All three of them also worked very hard to get into well-known and prestigious universities in spite of the odds against them.
You are in for a real treat with this as you what these three women did. All of them came from families where they were the first-ever to attend a university. All of them worked hard and overcame obstacles and challenges.
