In this WBIL Podcast episode, Dr. Jonathan H. Westover (https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathanhwestover/) talks with D Sangeeta about helping employers attract and retain STEM+ women. At 29, Sangeeta (https://www.linkedin.com/in/dsangeeta/) was at the end of her rope, about to quit a STEM career she loved because she couldn't navigate the roadblocks that were being thrown in front of her — as a woman, as an immigrant, as a person of color. Luckily, a mentor reached out, guided her, and she stayed in her career for another two decades, achieving 26 patents and leading global teams of 5,000+ with budgets of more than $200 million. She has mentored other STEM women, but could only help one woman at a time. That's why she is building a scalable, for-profit career advice platform so 30+ million STEM women around the world have access to the advice they need from top professionals to stick with their careers and thrive. Today, she can lead her global company because of the early leadership, business, and life lessons she learned - first as a scientist with GE; then as Director of Marketing and various managerial positions with GE Aviation; then as Global Head of Data Science and Chief Diversity Officer with Nielsen; then as VP of Connections with Amazon - all thanks to her sponsor who reached out in the very beginning.
