This week on Women in AEC: Wine After Work, I'm joined by the brilliant Seyka Mejeur, CEO and Founder of AdAstra Talent Advisors—an executive search firm helping early-stage Clean Tech and New Space startups build high-performing leadership and technical teams. Seyka has built her career around one philosophy: 👉 People thrive when they're given autonomy and placed in environments that align with their strengths, values, and long-term goals. In this conversation, we explore: ✨ What true workplace autonomy looks like (and why most companies still get it wrong) ✨ How to match talent with roles where they feel energized—not drained ✨ Why misalignment is one of the most common (and most avoidable) causes of turnover ✨ What founders misunderstand about hiring in the early stages ✨ The behind-the-scenes of building teams for cutting-edge Hard Tech startups ✨ The power of clarity, communication, and designing roles around human beings— not just job descriptions Seyka blends recruiting, operations, and organizational design in a way that few people do, which makes this episode a gift for anyone looking to lead better, hire better, or build a career with intention. Pour a glass and join us for a conversation packed with honesty, strategy, and the kind of insight every leader needs.
