Women Behind the Work | Maira Shaath

As part of our Women Behind the Work series this Women’s History Month, we’re continuing to spotlight the voices and perspectives behind the work at geekspeak Commerce.

Today we’re featuring Maira Shaath, Project Coordinator.
When asked what growth looks like this year, Maira shared:

"For me, growth this year looks like being more intentional with how I approach things, both in my work and in my life in general. Over time, I’ve realized that it’s not just about getting things done, but also about building better processes and finding ways to make things run more smoothly.

At the same time, I want to keep leaning into the creative side of what I do, whether that’s through content, storytelling, or just trying new ideas. And honestly, a big part of it is learning to trust myself more and feel confident taking ownership of my work."

Women Behind the Work | Katie Robert

As part of our Women Behind the Work series this Women’s History Month, we’re continuing to spotlight the voices and perspectives shaping the future of commerce at geekspeak Commerce.

Today we’re featuring Katie Robert, Senior Client Success Manager.
When asked what advice she would give to women interested in working in commerce or tech, Katie shared:

"The advice that I would give to women interested in working in commerce or tech is to take up space. Have a mindset that you belong in the rooms that you find yourself in, and always raise your hand for opportunities that excite you. Don’t wait until you feel 100% qualified or ready, because you may never. Take the chance and trust yourself."

A reminder that growth often starts by stepping forward before you feel ready.
