    FLC: Empowering Voices: The Vital Role of Male Allies in Gender Equality, Serge Albohayre BONUS

    FLC: Empowering Voices: The Vital Role of Male Allies in Gender Equality, Serge Albohayre BONUS

    In this week's bonus episode of MITM, we dive deep into the conversation of gender equality within the tech industry, a realm where change is much needed yet challenging to enact. Our special guest, Serge Albohayre, Head of Partnerships and Business Development at Apply Digital, shares his unique perspective as a man who spent the majority of his career in a sector traditionally dominated by male voices. This discussion illuminated the essential role male allies play in fostering an inclusive environment and the profound impact of their support in achieving gender equality. 

    As we unpack Serge’s experiences, we confront the stark realities faced by women in tech: walking into boardrooms or meetings where they are vastly outnumbered. This episode is not just an exploration of these challenges but a rallying cry for action. Serge, drawing from his personal observations and the wisdom imparted by influential women in his life, advocates for subtle yet powerful practices of creating opportunities for women without making it about their gender. He emphasised the importance of providing a platform for women to express their ideas and opinions in a comfortable setting, thereby encouraging a more inclusive and diverse discourse. 

    Our conversation also sheds light on the critical statistics highlighting the gender disparity in tech, with a particular focus on the underrepresentation of female-founded companies. This issue extends beyond the tech industry, touching upon broader societal norms and the need for a cultural shift towards equality. With us discussing the nuances of support, questioning the motivations behind investments and initiatives aimed at bridging the gender gap, and the importance of sincerity in these efforts. 

    Serge’s reflections on feedback and personal growth, specifically regarding communication dynamics, offer valuable insights into how we can all contribute to a more inclusive environment. His experiences underscore the importance of being mindful of our interactions and the space we create for others to share their voices. 

    This episode is not just a conversation but a call to action for male allies to recognise their role in supporting women, challenging the status quo, and working together towards a more inclusive future. 

    Join us in this compelling discussion that goes beyond the surface, offering both critical insights and hopeful pathways for change. 

    And remember, your engagement and support can make a difference in creating a more inclusive tech industry and beyond.

    FLC: Men vs Women // The Importance of Allyship with CMO at Exclaimer, Carol Howley BONUS

    FLC: Men vs Women // The Importance of Allyship with CMO at Exclaimer, Carol Howley BONUS

    We’re back with the second installment of our BRAND NEW podcast partnership with MAD//Fest Female Leaders Club! 

    And it is getting better and better…


    As you know, we are on a mission to change the game when it comes to equality across the industry - to do that successfully, we need to get more people behind the cause, and who better to help us shout about some of the leading issues when it comes to inequality than those who have/are experiencing the impacts of it firsthand.

    So, with that in mind, Katie has welcomed another incredible industry leader in her own right, Carol Howley, CMO at Exclaimer,  to join her on this week's episode of Marketing In The Madness where they dig deeper into Carol's own unique experiences and share invaluable advice on the ever-evolving landscape of gender equality. There are so many eye-opening takeaways from this episode highlighting the need for change, and the importance of advocating, championing and supporting not only females in business but all - as the true answer for change is found in Allyship and not an ‘Us vs Them’ mentality. 

    And if you don’t think inequality still exists, maybe this stat will change your mind…

    “We estimate it will take 300 years for the gap between men and women in the workplace to even out when it comes to the opportunity men have vs women”

    We’ll leave you with that thought…

    How to Level Up Your MarTech Game with Charles Bell, Senior Director of Solution Engineering EMEA at Contentful #27

    It is no secret that lots of marketers have been using AI to help with content generation. (I mean, you’ve only got to take a look on LinkedIn to spot a few)

    But content creation is only half of the battle. If you haven’t got a smooth process for getting it in front of your prospects, then you’re still stuck! 

    This is where the V’s of Content comes in.  Velocity, Volume, and Value. 📈 Like a finely tuned engine, they must work seamlessly together to help you get further, faster. 

    Charles Bell, Senior Director Solution Engineering EMEA at Contentful, dropped some serious insights on the latest episode of Marketing in the Madness. From the broken promises of MarTech and SAAS technologies to the threats of AI.  

    In a world of automation, authenticity is the real key to success. Your brand tone of voice is what separates your content from the mass of copy & paste. When the debate of copyright ownership in generative AI becomes more prevalent, you’ll want to know that your branded content is safe!

    We even touch upon the broken promises of MarTech and SAAS solutions, debunking the myth of a one-click personalization. 

    This episode is jam-packed with great insights across so many interesting topics - I think you’re going to love it!

    This episode covers:

    • Charles career path & experience
    • Sales strategies and RFP’s
    • Digital transformation
    • Composable solutions Vs Monolith platforms 
    • AI in marketing
