How Do You Break Through the Silicon Ceiling? A Conversation with Christine King
In this episode, Françoise von Trapp speaks with Christine King, the world’s first woman CEO of a semiconductor company, about her journey from near destitution to success in a male-dominated industry. Christine recently published a memoir about her journey, called Breaking Through the Silicon Ceiling, which details her journey and provides insights on work-life balance at IBM and beyond.
Christine talks about how she overcame adversity and stumbled into engineering and entrepreneurship. She shares stories of how she made her way up the IBM corporate ladder, overcoming challenges such as gender bias and roadblocks from male colleagues.
You’ll learn about her 12 lessons for success, the importance of mentorship, networking, and sponsorship, and the need for individuals to advocate for themselves and support each other in their careers.
Christine King’s book, Breaking Through the Silicon Ceiling, is available here on Amazon and Barnes and Noble.

Correction: the interview states that the book was released on July 4, 2024. But its actual release date was June 28, 2024.
