E014: STEM Belongs to Everyone with Mark McBride-Wright and Séverine Trouillet

In this episode of The SAFE Leader Podcast, Mark McBride-Wright is joined by Séverine Trouillet, CEO of STEM Learning—the UK’s largest provider of STEM education and careers support. With a powerful blend of personal insight and sector expertise, Séverine shares what drives her mission to widen participation in STEM, especially for underrepresented communities. From her reflections on having a “squiggly career” to her determination to change the narrative for girls who feel STEM isn’t for them, Séverine brings clarity, purpose, and action to the forefront. She speaks about the importance of industry collaboration, targeted outreach, and why diversity isn’t just a buzzword, it’s the backbone of future innovation.
