Karen Wickre: Taking the Work Out of Networking

Karen is a veteran connector, editor, and communicator, and has worked in and around Silicon Valley long enough to have appeared in WIRED 1.4. (Even before that, she wrote one of the very first guides to what we used to call “the World Wide Web,” now an amusing relic of a more innocent time.) As a corporate writer, she has developed stories, styles and cadence for Google, Twitter, and many startups. As an early Googler (she joined when there were 500 employees and left nine years later, when there were 50,000), she’s been in her share of war rooms and fire drills, and has crafted scores of posts covering products and pivots, shakeups, corporate apologies and company culture. More recently she’s advised a range of companies that want a strategy (or a reality check) on their messages and the content they produce.
