For some people, their authenticity shines through as soon as you meet them, and today’s guest Aubrey Blanche-Sarellano is one of those people. With her pink and purple hair, a nose ring, and a big warm smile, she doesn’t look like your typical tech person, but she’s doing amazing work to embed equitable people & culture (more on what that is later) and responsible AI (more on that later too) into organisations.
The world is changing, the workforce is changing, and Aubrey is doing work to make sure everyone can succeed. In this episode we’re talking about what it means to construct your career and non-linear pathways, how we each have influence over ourselves and the people around us, and getting clear on what you need.
