In this episode, we sit down with Lisette Martinez, VP of Sales and Marketing at Comcast, as she shares her inspiring journey from retail leadership to the executive suite—fueled by the influence of her father and a passion for people. Lisette opens up about overcoming imposter syndrome through preparation and the power of storytelling, and why authentic human connection is at the heart of great leadership. She reflects on a powerful moment when sharing her own story deeply resonated with a team member, reinforcing the value of vulnerability in the workplace. We also dive into how she navigates corporate resistance to change by prioritizing trust and empathy. Lisette champions mentorship, continuous growth, and the importance of representation—especially when it comes to empowering Latinas in tech.
