Aflevering "Technological Capabilities Come In Different Packages, Not Just Male" | Kamales Lardi On Women Disrupting Tech

Kamales Lardi does not look like a woman who can code. But looks can be deceiving. Because at a young age, she decided to ignore the well-intended advice of people around her to go into a more female-friendly occupation and study computer science. There she learned how to code. Now, more than 20 years later, she is a tech leader, with her own consultancy company, who helps companies from all over the world be ready for the next generation of customers and employees. Kamales believes that technology has the opportunity to close the digital divide and increase the economic independence of women, thereby generating more gender equality. But that requires a new breed of technology leadership. In this episode of Women Disrupting Tech, we discuss a broad range of topics including: - How gen-z could force traditional corporate structures to change; - How founders play an incredibly important role when it comes to the culture of their startup; - And, of course, her book "The Human Side of Digital Business Transformation" Her advice to startup founders (men and women) who want to build a transformative startup: Don't focus on building a Tech solution, but on developing a strong value proposition supported by an ecosystem in the market.
