Increased career confidence, powered by design thinking
SharpMinds emboldens women in design and engineering through values-driven mentoring and coaching that prioritises you.
Gender gap
got you down?
Design & Engineering is a bit of a boys' club. Together, we can change that

Women are severely underrepresented in design and engineering. SharpMinds helps more women get – and unapologetically own – their seat at the table by boosting confidence through self awareness development and design thinking tools.

Focusing on the values of growth, creativity, respect, freedom, and connection, our mentoring and coaching empowers women to find their purpose and make bold decisions that create an intentional life and career.

ABOUT
Who you’ll be
working with

I’m Tracy Sharp, an engineering director, team leader, and accredited coach, mentor, and speaker with over 20 years of experience.

Throughout my career designing consumer products and domestic appliances for businesses and consultancies around the world, there has been one thing in common: a stark absence of women. Over time, working in non-inclusive environments led to burnout, leaving me both exhausted and unfulfilled – sentiments echoed by countless other women in our field.

Now that I have reached a point in my career where I can influence change, I am committed to being the role model, confidante, and cheerleader that I so rarely had along the way. I created SharpMinds to support women in design and engineering at all professional levels so we can contribute and lead with empathy, confidence, and joy.  

 

TESTIMONIALS
What people
are saying...

"Tracy’s message is based on her own real experience, yet offers learning for us all. She is an engaging speaker, and knows how to create a positive, open dynamic that makes her audience feel comfortable and involved. Tracy was happy to tailor the session to some specific areas of focus, which proved very valuable for the various participants and perspectives involved. Feedback from the group was very positive, and we came away with a list of tangible takeaways and next steps. Looking forward to continue working with Tracy to support and encourage women in ID and product development roles!"
