When Megan Gaiser was named CEO of Her Interactive in 1999, she didn’t consider herself a business person. She had risen to her position on the creative side of film and games. And she used that as a strength, to manage her company in a different and more human way.
During her time at Her Interactive, the company saw financial success, selling more than 9 million games. It also did some good by expanding the audience for games to include girls. Gaiser became an advocate of using creativity to make both meaning and money. She left Her Interactive in 2013 and is now head of Contagious Creativity, which is dedicated to helping companies inspire creativity and promote diversity.
