Olga V. Mack has been disrupting the status quo and fighting for equality since she can remember. She is the founder of the WomenServeOnBoards.com movement making a fiscal and social case for gender equality on corporate boards. To spearhead her efforts, Mack launched two petitions – to Land O’Lakes and Discovery Communications, both Fortune 500 companies – requesting the addition of, at a minimum, one woman to their board of directors. She plans to continue her efforts until every Fortune 500 company has a woman on its board. To stay deeply connected to her mission, Mack dedicates her time as an advisory board member for ChannelMeter and TimeJoy. As a startup enthusiast, she currently brings her passion for seeing her clients succeed and grow as general counsel at ClearSlide. Previously she held positions at Zoosk, Visa Inc., Pacific Art League of Palo Alto, California, and Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati. In addition to a trajectory that won’t be slowing down anytime in the near future, she spends her free time chasing her two active daughters who will, undoubtedly, also work tirelessly to change the world for the better.
