PODCAST: Dianne Kibbey: Emboldening women to become elemental forces in tech

July 27, 2018 By Aimee Kalnoskas 2 Comments

When Dianne Kibbey obtained her undergraduate degree, she constituted fifty percent of the total number of women in her computer science graduating class.

element14Now, as the Global Head of Community and Social Media at Newark element14, she leads the strategy and day to day operations of the element14 online community for electronics engineers and makers. In addition to her work at element 14, Dianne volunteers at Disney II Magnet School, part of the Chicago Public Schools. She teaches young girls how to code and create new technologies, ranging from alarms to accelerometers.

Dianne is becoming yet another powerful driving force promoting opportunities for women in technology. Learn how and where she draws the energy, support and inspiration to speed up that movement.

Listen now:

 

 

 

 

In November, Design World will celebrate some of the most inspiring women in the design engineering space. Our editorial team will highlight female engineers who are positively influencing design technology or engineering practices. Fully 50% of the gross proceeds from this issue will be donated to charity or scholarship relating to STEM/STEAM work.

    Sorry but being VP of Community and Social media (basically talking) is not becoming an elemental force in tech. Basically she is supporting the idea that women are good talkers and not good at actual hard tech. development.

    Let’s see her leadership in new chips, new IC process geometry, new materials research, new optical/quantum chips. Then we can talk about her being an elemental force in tech.

      Thank you for your feedback, jojo. I strongly believe there is a need in our industry for leaders on several levels in order to implement the type of “hard tech” you refer to. With her mathematics, computer science, and business degrees, Dianne is leveraging her job, her background, and her experience to encourage and inspire young women to become innovators in engineering — with chip design, process geometry, materials research, and much more. All that requires ability and passion in and for technology, as well as the ability to communicate the benefits and features of new products and technology to other engineers. Dianne is making that happen and I encourage you to become or continue to be a player in that overall engineering community. Cheers, Aimee.
