Episode 8: Laurie Luh, HR Consultant

March 29, 2017 by Julie Harris Oliver in diversity, technology, women, women in tech

Laurie is an HR consultant – Executive in Residence. She helped build Participant Media for nearly a decade and went out on her own as a consultant a few years ago. Far beyond handbooks and compensation packages, Laurie now advises CEO’s of tech companies and startups on strategy and building sustainable and fulfilling culture.  We had a juicy conversation on what employees really care about – and it’s more about engagement and purpose than it is meditation pods and shuttle pickups.  Although those things are cool too.

And for the entrepreneur in all of us, it is vitally important to dare greatly.

Episode 5: Eileen Scully, Founder and Consultant

March 08, 2017 by Julie Harris Oliver in diversity, technology, women, women in tech

Eileen is the Founder of The Rising Tides, a consulting firm that works with companies to help women support each other.  In her own words, “The mission of The Rising Tides is to drive a work culture that supports women regardless of life stage and allows each of our boats to rise together, never at the expense of one another.”  She learned a lot coming up through tech companies, and she is now at a point where she shares this knowledge with others and supports building an inclusive and supportive corporate culture.

She also runs a website called 52 Feminists that highlights the story of a different feminist every week.  Look to see me there soon, because I am a feminist.  But, not in an angry, scary, hairy way.   

She gave us several little nuggets on what we can do today to make things better - like what to do when you are inaudible in a meeting.
