Limor Bergman, in her own words: "I’m a former Director of Engineering with 20+ years in tech and the host of the podcast From a Woman to a Leader, where I spotlight real leadership journeys and the skills women need to grow into executive impact. I’ve led engineering organizations across continents, scaled teams, and navigated the shift from hands-on execution to strategic leadership. Today, I coach ambitious women in tech into leadership roles and speak at global conferences about leadership growth, influence, and visibility. I recently spoke at LeadDev and CTO Craft Con, sharing practical frameworks on moving from strong technical leader to strategic, high-impact leader. My work blends real-world engineering leadership experience with modern leadership development. I don’t teach theory. I teach what actually works inside fast-growing, complex organizations."Her Website: https://limorbergman.com/Her Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/episode/6qrpZDrobhHOOpYostD2Q2?si=xyXS_JozTl2aJhFfWWXP6AGrab a cup of coffee and meet me inside!
