Why did you start your company, and what inspired you to do so?
听
I was a journalist for eight years before I discovered product management. I was lucky enough to find a mentor who helped me learn the basics and get a job as a machine learning product manager听in less than three months.
Since then, I have been a true advocate of mentoring. Over the past 10 years, I mentored hundreds of individuals through my own practice and via different programs such as TechStars or the Facebook Startup program.听Meander听initially started as a way to share insights with mentors across the world and enable access to mentoring for more people.
听
What problem does your company solve, and for whom?
听
- With layoffs and tech advancements, people need to be able to stay relevant and upskill.
- At the same time, middle managers who traditionally acted like coaches are stretched and don鈥檛 have the same capacity to support people鈥檚 learning.
- And hybrid/ remote work decreased opportunities for ad hoc learning as well.
Meander听aims to provide a modern solution which听enables meaningful connections and personalised learning. We use AI to achieve scale and unlock career insights, and we work with humans to inspire and share high quality advice.
听
What can we hope to see from your company in the future?
听
We are expanding our B2C offering to companies, helping them create highly engaging and high quality mentoring programs.
