Isla Kennedy

I am a driven and organised Product Management and Digital Change expert, with experience in enterprise mobility, employee engagement, project management, agile transformation, digital product design and digital adoption, across multiple industries. I love to explore ideas and improving ways of working to digitally empower people to deliver their best and be happy in their careers.

I am a passionate feminist and interested in women’s progression in business and getting more women into technology careers. I am involved in my company’s women’s network and now lead our Digital group. I set up a schools programme for Year 7 and 8 girls, and am now the UKI Girls in STEM Community Lead.

I am also Managing Director of my own property development and lettings company. I love property and have a small portfolio in East London. I renovate properties to let out and this year I am building a house which is very exciting.

I am a Girlguiding leader (senior section, age 14-18) in East London, a freeman of the Worshipful Company of Ironmongers and a journeyman of the Worshipful Company of Information Technologists. I have recently completed my training with the First Aid Nursing Yeomanry (Princess Royal’s Volunteer Corps) and am now an active member. I enjoy travel, particularly active/cultural holidays.

I graduated from Christ Church, Oxford university with a 2.1 in Philosophy, Politics and Economics.
