Did you miss the Women in Tech night last week?

Here's a picture I took from the night.....

Just kidding.... that's actually a picture of Oprah Winfrey (in case you were confused ??)

But honestly, Shame on you! It was amazing. I've outlined some of my favorite tips from our speakers so you can see what you missed out on. ?

?? Soft skills & Networking - Minal Badge

As women we possess exceptional soft skills from our day to day lives, including strong communication, empathy, and conflict resolution abilities. These skills are invaluable in today's workplace, where building relationships, navigating complex situations, and fostering collaboration are essential for success. Whether mediating team disagreements, negotiating with clients, or leading diverse teams, women's soft skills can significantly contribute to a positive and productive work environment

?? Imposter Syndrome - Anne-Marie Kruk

Embrace your uniqueness. Your special qualities are what make you extraordinary. Remember, these are your superpowers.

Shift your perspective. Instead of focusing on what you can't do, imagine the possibilities of what you can achieve. A change in mindset can make all the difference.

Surround yourself with support. While self-reliance is important, sometimes we need a reminder of our worth. Find people who celebrate your achievements and believe in your potential.

?? Getting ahead and staying ahead in Tech - Gita?Charan

?? Designing your future - Simona Dimovski

Only 11% of the global cybersecurity workforce are women, and an alarmingly small 1% of those women hold leadership positions. This gender gap has significant implications, particularly in fields like technology, where innovation and diversity are crucial.

Consider the example of crash-test dummies, traditionally based on the 'average' male. This oversight has led to the development of safety features that are less effective for women, putting their lives at risk. Research shows that women are 17% more likely to die in car accidents due to these design flaws.

The future needs more women in leadership for this very reason!! You have the power to design your future. The path to leadership in cyber and technology might be challenging, but it’s one you can absolutely shape!?

Details for the next event will be shared here, so keep your eyes peeled!!! ????
