Happy birthday to the incredible Dame Stephanie Shirley who is 87 years young today 🎉 From child refugee fleeing Nazi Germany to building one of the most successful tech businesses of its generation in her adopted home of England. Dame Stephanie is a pioneer who made herself and many of her nearly all-female staff millionaires when she sold her tech company. A still-active speaker, she inspires many and continues to champion founders, and autism charities through her busy philanthropic work. You can find my interview with Dame Stephanie on @youtube as well as in my book - Female Innovators at Work. We discuss her life as a child refugee escaping Nazi Germans and fleeing to the U.K. before she fell in love with tech and became hugely successful. We look at the lessons she has learned in life and work and how she became such an inspiring pioneer despite working in such a male-dominated field. Dame Stephanie also has her own book out - Let It Go - which is an incredible read. Many happy returns to an amazing woman. …see more
