Networking
Leading with authenticity and inclusivity
Both authenticity and inclusivity are fundamental in successful leadership. Authentic leaders fully participate in their workspace thus developing a more engaged, enthusiastic, and motivated team. Inclusive leaders cultivate an environment where their team members feel valued thereby encouraging them to collaborate, speak up and go the extra mile. So, how do leaders ensure that they are both authentic and inclusive? The speakers in this panel will share:
How your personal brand can grow your career
If you want to cultivate a successful career, building a visible and influential personal brand is crucial. A personal brand goes way beyond creative business cards and social media presence. It is about how you present yourself to those who are imperative to your growth. It shows people not only your level of confidence, but also your value, credibility and trustworthiness. Moreover, an influential personal brand will protect your career when the market is in turmoil. By making a name for yourself you secure your career and accelerate your career growth regardless of the outer circumstances.
In this talk, you will learn:
Balancing motherhood and career
Motherhood often has unintended consequences for mothers who want to pursue a career while raising a family; thus the term, "motherhood penalty." While it is not fair, it is a reality that many women face. So, how can women embrace motherhood and still advance in their careers?
The speakers in this panel will share:
Lift as you climb: Championing women in the workplace
Today, not only women but also men are becoming more proactive in championing women in all spaces - particularly, the workplace. From celebrating other women’s success to advocating for female coworkers, we are slowly leveling the playing field!
Join us in a panel discussion where both men and women share practical steps that both men and women can take to promote equal opportunities. Our speakers will talk about:
Growing your influence
While most people equate leadership to authority over others, it is so much more than that. One of the characteristics of an effective leader is their ability to influence others by changing how they behave or think. So, regardless of whether you are in a leadership position in an official capacity or not, you can still lead based on persuasion instead of authority.
In this talk, you will learn:
