Join us this week for a very exciting episode as we had the honor of interviewing a personal friend, Glady Singh! Glady is the General Manager of Innovation & Federal Solutions at AkitaBox and is an inspiration to many.
Join as we discuss:
- The Importance of diversity in the aviation and transportation industry and how she has overcome personal hurdles as a woman in this male dominated profession,
- Glady’s many involvements, degrees, and hobbies,
- How to break down and question the lack of diversity in this industry as well as why it is significantly more challenging for minorities to excel and succeed in the professional world,
- The need for widespread support of women and minorities in the aviation and transportation industry,
- How Glady implements her values and perspectives in her role at AkitaBox,
- Her leadership in flying drones over the campus of VA to identify plant species,
- Her role at AkitaBox and what we can look forward to from the company,
- The important role of disrupting, challenging, and questioning in order to bring about change for women and minorities,
- The new hobbies we each took up during this Pandemic! (Did they say wrasslin’?)
We hope you enjoyed episode 10 of No U-Turn, we enjoyed getting to hear from Glady and all of her many experiences and we will talk to you again soon!
