In this podcast episode, Dr. Angela Schill and Dr. Jonathan H. Westover talks with Shelmina Babai Abji about her book, Show Your Worth, 8 Intentional Strategies for Women to Emerge as Leaders at Work.

Shelmina Babai Abji is an author, board member, speaker, former IBM VP, angel investor, and distinguished alumni who is devoted to creating gender equality in leadership by helping career women emerge as leaders. Shelmina started her journey with humble beginnings in Tanzania. Driven by her desire to lift herself and her family out of poverty, she left home at the age of 15 to pursue higher education. When she started her career, she was an underrepresented woman in the male-dominated field of technology. She was also under-educated as compared to others, underprivileged in her economic status, and under-proficient in the language and culture. Shelmina went from being the first college graduate in her family to becoming one of the highest-ranking women of color at IBM while raising her two children as a single mother.
