Episode 2 - Dr Anne-Marie Imafidon MBE, Head STEMette

This is the second episode of Starts at the Top, a new podcast hosted by Zoe Amar and Paul Thomas. It’s about how leaders from all sectors are using digital to
navigate uncertainty and forge a path to the future.

This week Zoe and Paul are joined by Dr Anne-Marie Imafidon MBE, Head
STEMette, visiting Professor at the University of Sunderland, keynote speaker and a
renowned champion and inspiration for women looking to find a role in the world of
Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM).

We talked about diversity and inclusion, gender and leadership, the role of tech
during and after COVID-19, getting young people into STEM and the ethics of big
tech. Anne-Marie was incredibly thought provoking on these issues. She also shares
her recommendations for books and TV shows in an extra segment hidden after the end music.
