To celebrate the end of Women’s History Month, today I’m joined by Stacey McPherson, Team Lead of Customer Success at Commvault. Stacey is sharing her lived experience of being a woman of colour in Tech.
We talk about:
– How does it look like, being a woman of colour in Customer Success? if that’s you, that makes you 1% of the overall Customer Success community
– Microaggressions at the workplace – how they happen and what you can do about it
– Unconscious bias
– Inclusive workplace – how do you create an environment where everyone can feel inclusive, contribute towards the common goals and succeed
– Sponsors and allies
– Practical tips and tools for becoming changemakers for women of colour in Tech
This episode also provides a challenge for everyone – what is one thing you can do today to help women of colour enter the customer success profession and grow their careers?
Stacey is such an inspiring woman with a wealth of business and cultural background and experiences, having lived and worked in three continents (Asia, Europe, USA).
