If you can repeat her idea, you can say her name.

I’ve been in rooms where my opinion was requested in a private chat, repeated out loud, and presented without credit.

So this part of my conversation with Mike Toney from Foundry hit home.

His approach is simple: name the woman behind the idea. Keep naming her when you build on it. Make sure the credit follows the work.

Episode 215 of Programmatic Digest is live. We talk creative, data, and making space for women in ad tech.

Watch the full conversation on our YouTube channel.

Who made sure your work was recognized when you weren’t in the room?
