About Madiha Faisal

I’m a product manager and women in tech advocate who loves building out a company’s vision and bringing innovative ideas to the table that result in new and improved products. Leveraging a mix of hard and soft skills spanning product design, product strategy, project management, leadership, and persuasive communication, I bring high emotional intelligence, passion, and great energy to everything I do.My proactive approach to work, intellectual curiosity, and confidence in my problem-solving skills allow me to handle any problem that comes along while staying open to continuous learning and growth.Building on the broad range of lessons I learned in the #1 entrepreneurship program in the country, I’m comfortable being uncomfortable. I enjoy stepping into new spaces, listening to their challenges, asking the right questions, and crafting fresh solutions with measurable business impact.To date, I’ve had success in the B2B SaaS space as well as a “science-first” agriculture company, a post-surgical clothing startup, and one of Fortune 100’s most admired companies.As a Product Manager at Spekit, I lead a global team of 15 that owns the entire new user journey across the Spekit webapp and chrome extension. I focus on onboarding and activation to ensure users have a “hooked first time” product experience as well as managing strategy and providing day-to-day technical direction.Previously, as an Associate Product Manager with Spekit, I built the company’s first one-click login experience, generating upsells and new acquisition, increased product adoption, spearheaded the transition to an automated support desk, and prioritized key enhancement rollouts.As a Women in Tech speaker and advocate, I share my experience of getting into tech without a technical background and speak handling the pressures that early-career professionals face in today’s uber-competitive business climate. My ultimate passion lies in fostering an environment where confident, successful, and fearless women are filling up boardrooms and standing in authoritative positions.I also serve as a judge at pitch competitions and hackathons.Outside of work, I enjoy public speaking, I’m passionate about music from different cultures, and I DJ for fun.
