These two women are trailblazing executives who each served as CEO of Match Group, the company behind Tinder, Match.com, OkCupid, and Hinge. Together, they reflect on their unlikely paths into tech leadership, building a startup from the ground up, and scaling Match into a global portfolio of brands. Their story is one of risk-taking, resilience, and redefining the rules of leadership.
Mandy and Shar share candid insights into their complementary styles, the power of asking for help, and why transparency and trust shaped Match’s culture. They also discuss the importance of mentorship, gender equity, and building diverse teams. They offer advice for rising leaders and talk about their continued work in health and wellness, including Mandy’s service on the Board of Southwestern Medical Foundation and involvement with the women’s health app, Flo.
