Katie Sanders

My Experience:
As a data-driven content strategist, editor, writer, and community steward, I help technical leaders win at work. My 15 years of experience in the tech space makes me well-rounded to provide technical audiences with first-hand operating wisdom so senior tech leaders can get clarity.

Tech leaders want to learn from peers who’ve been there. I share hard-won lessons that help CTOs scale systems, teams, and strategy in the face of disruption. Strategy isn’t valuable until it meets operational reality. My content reflects that. I share what worked, what failed, what changed—and what you can steal.

Currently, I’m the Executive Editor for The CTO Club at Black & White Zebra, where I nurture a large and diverse community of technical experts and writers. A thriving community doesn’t grow without thoughtfulness, advocacy, and intention, so the meaningful relationships I build are paramount to our success.

My Expertise:

• Leadership
• IT Strategy
• Emotional Intelligence
• DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion)
• Remote Work + Distributed Teams
• SaaS (Software as a Service)
• Digital Transformation
• Ethical Considerations in Tech
• Agile
• DevOps
• Cloud
• Cybersecurity
• Artificial Intelligence

Technology I Use:
I’m a macOS girlie through and through. Apple’s ‘Stickies’ are my modern-day post-its.

Slite and Google Docs keep me organized. AirTable means articles get published. Slack is great for our distributed team + it satiates my desire to use all the GIFs.

To free up space in my brain, I use 1Password to keep track of logins. And Lo-fi beats on Spotify are in the background all day long.
