The Real Women in Tech
"The Real Women in Tech" is dedicated to discussing real stories from women across various roles, functions, and seniority in the tech industry. While there are many podcasts out there, our unique approach lies in our group discussions. Igor, brings his extensive world-wide coaching experience, and I, Shivam, will share my lived experiences as a real woman in Tech.
Together we will share our radically candid observations, aiming to foster honest conversations that address the challenges women face and celebrate the significant progress we've made. We want to steer away from scripted success recipes, and engage in brutally honest dialogues.

Hi there, my name is Maddie Engelmeyer. I'm reaching out because I'd actually like to be a guest on your show. I've been working at MODIS for five years as a PM leading team that executes our AI strategy and supports a roughly 5,000-person org through real AI adoption. During the past year and a half, I also made the jump into people manager, learning how to manage not only humans but also agents, which was quite a massive undertaking that I'm still learning. I've been a guest on a podcast before, This New Way, with Aidan Mirze from Fellow AI. I write on Substack and I'm starting to do more of my own personal branding. I'd love to connect, learn how I can contribute to your show, hopefully as a guest, and help others in doing so. You can find me on LinkedIn, Maddie Engelmeyer or Madeline Engelmeyer at Motive.
