I’ve spent over 20 years working across 5 countries and 4 continents, leading regional teams for global companies. Many people, especially young women, often ask me about navigating careers and reaching leadership. To celebrate International Women's Day on March 8, here are my top three pearls of wisdom 🦪: 1️⃣ Building Confidence: Own your strengths and step out of your comfort zone. Growth happens when you challenge yourself. Stay persistent because success takes time, but every step builds your confidence. 2️⃣ Balancing Work and Life: Set clear priorities and boundaries to protect your time. Use tools like time-blocking to allocate tasks in your calendar, but stay flexible—life is unpredictable, and adaptability is key. 3️⃣ Women in Leadership: I believe that women bring empathy, collaboration, and innovation to leadership, which are essential qualities for today’s fast-changing workplace. To step into leadership roles, make sure to seek mentors for guidance, build a strong support network of cheerleaders, and invest in personal growth to develop the skills and experience you need to thrive. What is the best advice you’ve received to accelerate your career? I’d love to hear about it in the comment section. #careers #leadership #IWD25 #LinkedInNewsAustralia 👉 If this post was useful, please share it and follow Lucy Lin and Emerging Tech Unpacked for more. 🚀 I’m a speaker, MC, facilitator, brand partner, and podcaster.

I had an incredible time speaking with Lucy Lin on the Emerging Tech Unpacked podcast. We explored how AI isn't replacing human creativity but becoming a collaborator in the design process. At Canva, we've been working with AI for years now—13 billion+ uses of our AI tools later, we're seeing how it gives people back time for the work that matters. Lucy and I dug into why curiosity becomes even more essential as tech evolves. In a world swimming with new tools, questioning everything keeps us moving forward. My favorite moment? Discussing how boredom sparks creativity. Some of my best ideas come from empty moments—walks without podcasts, staring out windows—when my mind can wander without purpose. It's why I try (and sometimes fail, it's natural!) to protect those spaces in my calendar. Working at this intersection of design and tech reminds me daily why I love what I do. Not because the tech is perfect—it isn't—but because it's making creativity and design accessible to people who never thought they could design before.

Ever wondered how AI is transforming the creative world? 🎨 I interviewed Christina (CJ) Jones, Head of Design for Generative AI at Canva, to unpack the future of creativity and tech. Here are my three key insights: 1️⃣ AI isn't replacing creativity – it's becoming a powerful collaborator, helping us build personalised tools tailored to our unique needs. 2️⃣ As technology evolves, curiosity and critical thinking are becoming essential skills. We need to question, explore, and keep learning. 3️⃣ Here's the golden nugget: Sometimes, the best creative insights come from simply letting yourself get bored. Take those walks, disconnect, and let your mind wander. What do you think about generative AI design? Share in the comments below. Want more insights on AI and creativity?

Are you scared or excited by deepfake technology? I had the privilege of interviewing one of the most fascinating guests I've ever met Emerald Sage, Head of Intelligent Services at OSINT Combine, on the Emerging Tech Unpacked podcast! Emerald is a former Australian intelligence operative who spent 13 years in a national security intelligence organisation comparable to the FBI in the United States or MI5 in the United Kingdom. From an aspiring archaeologist to an intelligence expert, I call her a real-life Indiana Jones! 🤠 We deep dive into deepfakes: 🤖 What it is and how it works 🤖 Practical detection methods to identify a deepfake 🤖 A career and ethics in the intelligence industry This episode truly opened my eyes to both the possibilities and dangers of deepfake technology while giving us a rare glimpse into the world of intelligence operations.
