We spoke about our succession plans today. We did a great activity: if I were to leave Robogals on November 6, one month from now, what would I spend my next month doing?
We had 2 minutes.
I think it's a really good activity to try because organisations cannot survive on a few key individuals alone. They need a great system in order to thrive.
Forbes named me a world's top 50 woman in tech & 30 Under 30. I founded Robogals and Aipoly and was Young Australian of the Year 2012. Currently working on robotics company Aubot. I'm the youngest Member of the Order of Australia (AM) and I give speeches around the world.
I tweet @maritacheng and I'm on Facebook.
