Brigid O'Brien's 3 decades of technology leadership span across Australia, Asia and Europe - from startups and scaleups to multi-country enterprises; from not-for-profits to banking. Brigid has spent the last decade at global tech & business consultancy Thoughtworks working alongside Executives and senior leadership teams as they accelerate the pace of change in the evolution of their organisations. She is passionate about modernising organisations, simultaneously promoting both human and technology potential.

Brigid has a highly tuned ability to observe, sense-make, map and engage with common patterns and anti-patterns in the way that organisations operate and evolve. Her experiences with debugging product engineering organisations will be shared for the first time with the YOW community this year.
