🚀 The future of technology leadership is undeniably bright! Through our #Tech4Good initiative, launched in conjunction with the Tech Whisperers Podcast, we’ve had the privilege of supporting the development of emerging IT leaders by providing scholarships to TechLX, Ouellette & Associates’ 9-month IT leadership program. To date, we’ve committed over $400,000 in scholarships to three dozen incredible STEM nonprofits—including repeat recipients like Girls Who Code, NPower, YearUp, and T200, a testament to the outstanding work they’re doing to develop the next generation of tech leaders. For my CIO Whisperers column, I had the pleasure of speaking with four remarkable women who received TechLX scholarships through T200: 💡 Lavanya B. (Bobba). – Product Owner, The Hartford 💡 Gela Guiuo – Digital & eCommerce Program Leader, Abbott 💡 Emily Hurff – Vulnerability Management Service Lead – Senior Manager, Zoetis 💡 Corrine Ptacek, CSM, PSPO, ITIL v.3 – Manager – SMO- ITSM Catalog Service Manager, McDonald’s Their journeys highlight the power of mentorship, peer connections, and continuous learning in developing future tech leadership. From the impact of trusted networks to the need for big-picture thinking and strategic execution, these women are not just navigating the digital landscape but shaping its future. As we enter an era defined by AI-driven transformation, leaders like these are ensuring technology innovation is balanced with governance and human-centered leadership. 👏 Huge thanks to T200 executive director Polly Lagana and to my Tech Whisperers podcast guests who designated scholarships for these four leaders: Marina F Bellini, Deepa Soni, Wafaa Mamilli, Diana McKenzie, and Karenann Terrell. 🔗 Read the full article to hear how these inspiring leaders are preparing for the next era of technology leadership. #womeninstem #techwhisperers #technologyleadership #mentorship #futureleaders https://lnkd.in/gz5gVTgB
