If you’re seeking clarity about whether the tech industry would make a good fit for you and your skill set, look no further than Host Chelsea Behrens’ guest on this episode of The 2X Women in Tech Podcast. Christie Randolph, Director of Business Enablement at SAP, is offering the laser-sharp insights you’ve been hoping for! Taking a risk and switching up her initial focus as an industrial engineer in the textile industry, she has been on a broad-based, opportunity-filled journey within the tech sector – a space that wasn’t even on the radar early in her career.

You’ll learn how Christie deals with Impostor Syndrome (something that for most people never entirely goes away), identifies strong leadership capabilities, and prioritizes her time (something she believes can be especially challenging for women). She also explains why it’s important to know how to pivot, even when it feels scary. Taking on multiple roles in sales and project management, Christie has learned how to move through seasons of learning and growth. Without hesitation, she has asked for help, relied on mentors, and taken from every setback important self-knowledge. Her commitment to an ever more diverse and inclusive tech industry reminds us all that the door is wide open. And, as Christie’s story and wisdom so clearly demonstrate, there really are no failures when we’re willing to put it out there and give things a try: “Be willing to jump. If you jump, you’re going to win – or you’re going to learn.” In other words, it’s a victory either way! For episode resources and more info, visit our 2x Women in Tech website
