AllVoices Founder Claire Schmidt on Using Technology to Drive Social Impact
ABOUT THE EPISODE
Have you ever felt uncomfortable speaking up at work? If the answer is yes, then you’re not alone. In 2021, over 68.9 million people joined The Great Resignation—with many attributing it to the feeling of being unable to voice their concerns or make meaningful change in their workplace.
Claire Schmidt identified the root of this problem—ineffective feedback and reporting systems that lacked a modern and welcoming approach—and developed a way to fix it.
Using her unique background of problem solving through technology Claire founded All Voices, an employee feedback platform that’s driving change. All Voices provides employees with a way to speak up, provide feedback, ask questions, share positive input, report harassment, identify bias, or speak to broader culture issues directly to their company’s leadership.
On this episode of WorkParty, Claire talks about her incredible career in Tech and how she’s paired it with a mission to make the world a better place. From her work with Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore to stop child sex trafficking, to her impact at Thrive market to increase the availability of healthy foods, she is clearly a thought leader in trying to champion new and innovative solutions.
