Shellye Archambeau

Shellye Archambeau is one of Silicon Valley’s first female African American CEOs. Formerly an executive at IBM and CMO at two public companies, Archambeau was recruited to be the CEO of a then-struggling Silicon Valley startup, which is now MetricStream, a recognized global leader in governance, risk, and compliance software solutions.

Shellye was named the second most influential African American in IT by Business Insider. She was ranked one of the “100 Most Influential Business Leaders in America” by Newsmax and that same year received the NCWIT Symons Innovator Award from The National Center for Women & Information Technology (NCWIT).

She currently serves as a Fortune 500 board member and holds board seats at Verizon, Nordstrom, Roper Technologies, and Okta.

Her debut book, Unapologetically Ambitious: Take Risks, Break Barriers, and Create Success on Your Own Terms, was featured as one of the best business books of 2020 by Fortune.
