What is the journey of Mary Shea in the tech industry?
Hi, everyone. Welcome to our show, Chief Change Officer. I'm Vince Chan, your ambitious human host. Our show is a modernist community for change progressives in organizational and human transformation from around the world. Today, I've got a treat for you. we are welcoming back a familiar voice to the show, Mary Shea.
If you caught our first season back in March, you might remember her from episode three and four. If you missed those, don't worry. They're still there if you want to catch up. But we'll cover plenty of ground today. Now, let me tell you. Mary's career path is anything but ordinary.
We're talking a journey from classical musician to frontline salesperson, all the way to senior tech leader in sales and revenue enablement. Talk about range, huh? But here's what really makes Mary tick. She's all about using tech to shake things up in how we work. As she put it in her last conversation, she's not one for playing by the standard rule book.
Nope, Mary's is all about making waves and driving positive change. So it's no surprise she's now teamed up with a rising star in the HR tech world. Let's talk about why this matters. Our job market right now is like a roller coaster. We've got layoffs, downsizing, companies flipping their business models on their heads, and AI stepping into the ring.
Throw in some political and economic curve balls, and you've got a recipe for a lot of people hunting for jobs. It's not just about finding work, isn't it? We are in this fascinating era where you might have four generations all working side by side. And AI is like this double-edged sword opening doors for some while others are wondering if it will show them the door.
So where does it all leave us? What's the future of work looking like? That's exactly what we are diving in today with Mary. She's going to give us the lowdown on what's happening in HR and recruitment. Ready? Let's jump in and hear what Mary's got to say. Mary, welcome back.
Thank you, Vince. It's wonderful to be here.
You've had a deep career journey from being an industry analyst at Forrester to now collaborating with a rising star in HR technology. What drew you to this HR tech space? What makes you believe we are at a tipping point for accelerated growth in this sector?
Wow, that's a great question. And there's lots of questions within the question. You're so wonderful at what you do, but thank you for asking. So yeah, I won't go too far back in time, but I was an industry analyst at Forrester for seven years or so. It's one of the most wonderful jobs that you could ever possibly have.
