Marie Smith Minisode

How to Change the “Bro Culture”

Technological innovation is starting to outpace even Moore’s Law, with seemingly quantum advances in artificial intelligence, robotics and the like.

This fast-changing technology is certain to disrupt whole industries – and can it also enable women to step into our true value, leverage our authentic feminine power and lift each other as women?

Change takes time… and it’s uneven. Tech is going quantum yet in the tech world, it’s still rare to find a woman at the table let alone an African American woman leading the way.

Meet Marie Smith.

She wrote her first computer program at age 9 and she’s now the Co-Founder and CIO of the artificial intelligence company Data360 Solutions. Listen to our Mentoring Minisode because Marie shares how to overcome the “bro culture” in technology”

Today on our Mentoring Minisode we talk:

  • How to open doors for women and minorities
  • The nature and pace of change
  • How to leverage game-changing artificial intelligence
  • African American women in technology
  • And more!
