Natalie Albert – Diversity is hard work

Natalia Albert (@nataliaalbert) is currently a Project Manager at Stats NZ after having tried her professional hand at many roles both inside and out of the public sector.Moving to NZ from Mexico Natalia discovered how insular NZ can be when it comes to "experience gained elsewhere" and so, to prove she can do the work that makes her smile she set up events - there's nothing like showing someone you can do it!Based on this experience Natalia, alongside her day job which she loves, is setting up an event in the new year that will provide experience for similar women - those that can do, but Kiwis don't believe it because they've not done it here.ANd all through this Mike and Natalia talk diversity, feminism and how men can support by getting out of the way.------------------------------------------------------We share the stories from people that work in New Zealand tech, social media, startups.
