Our very own Sabrina Puls provides insights and 2024 highlights for the Click to Trust podcast!
Director @ TrustLab | Ex-Google | Former Head of T&S Policy at Care.com | Advisory Board Member | Consultant | I'm Hiring!
One of my favorite things about working at TrustLab is the opportunity we have to speak with industry leaders about how they’re setting their teams up for success when it comes to mitigating emerging threats to safety online. This year on Click to Trust 🎙, we’ve had the pleasure of speaking with… 1️⃣ Alice Goguen Hunsberger (VP of Trust & Safety at PartnerHero) graciously took the time to speak with us about her experience working for both platforms and vendors that support the Trust & Safety teams of digital platforms, as well as how to forge a path to leadership as a woman in tech. 2️⃣ Jane Yu (Head of T&S at Papa) joined us to celebrate Papa’s first Inaugural transparency report and to discuss the important role that transparency plays in building trust on digital marketplaces that facilitate offline interactions. 3️⃣ Heather Grunkemeier (CEO & Founder at Twinkle LLC) helped us raise awareness about the mental health challenges impacting Trust & Safety professionals and shared best practices for safeguarding your own wellbeing as diligently as you safeguard your users. And finally, several of our own team members (Emma T., Cecilia Rodriguez) contributed thoughtful articles to our blog on issues ranging from AI bias to the threats misinformation and generative AI pose to election integrity. All in all, it’s been a great year at TrustLab. As the holiday season approaches, and I reflect back on what I’m most grateful for, I realize it’s the opportunity to work with and learn from such innovative thinkers. - Sabrina To learn more about our Podcast: https://lnkd.in/gpctZTNk Or watch the companion videos on our YouTube Channel: https://lnkd.in/giFRkcjx Link to TrustLab blog: https://lnkd.in/gFS9Dg9f
