Speakers:

Maddie Schneeman was recently promoted to Sr. Manager of Customer Success, EMEA at G2 - and it has not been a linear path to get there! Starting her career in technology consulting, Maddie made her way into the tech startup scene via implementation and sales engineering experiences, eventually finding her way into the world of true Customer Success with G2. As we know, the road to promotion is not always as straightforward as we hope, and Maddie has had many experiences navigating role transitions, reevaluating what makes you a “good” CSM, and pursuing holistic career development rather than a one-track mind.

Laura Heijink was recently promoted to Manager of Customer Success at Planhat. She started out her career in the startup scene and has been a part of it ever since. In tech, promotions don’t always follow the conventional path. Before joining Planhat, Laura worked in business development for an EdTech, customer success for a TravelTech, and set up her own HrTech startup. A diverse range of experiences have taught her how to think and act beyond your current role and make yourself a valuable asset for any company.
