In this episode I'm joined by the fabulous Tara Lorigan. We talk about Tara's experience in the tech industry - what she has seen change over the years and what have been some of the hurdles that leaders in that sector have had to overcome.

With a career that began in senior marketing roles at global tech giants Apple, IBM, Sun Microsystems, and 3Com, Tara went on to lead Aotearoa’s foremost tech incubator, where she designed its award-winning High Growth Programme.
She is the founder of Co.OfWomen, a pioneering organisation dedicated to equipping women to lead with power and purpose, and of Co.OfUs, focused on high-performance practices for all professionals. Her work, grounded in 20+ years of research and application, has influenced leaders across sectors and continents. Tara is widely respected for translating complex research into powerful, practical models that transform how leaders operate – from the inside out.
