Session: Own Your Power: How Trusting Yourself Builds Better Teams
As a woman in tech and a single mom, I've overcome challenges to forge a leadership path on my terms. In this talk, I'll share lessons in self-advocacy, creating a culture of trust, and why 'authenticity over perfection' is an agile leader's superpower. If you're ready to step up, lead with confidence, and build a team that thrives, this talk is for you.Key Takeaways
- Trust-Based Leadership: Attendees will be able to identify the core elements of trust-based leadership and articulate at least three practical strategies to implement these principles in their own work environments.
- Self-advocacy: Attendees will gain tools to assess their own leadership potential and develop a plan to advocate for themselves effectively, whether negotiating a promotion, seeking mentorship, or taking a calculated career risk.
- Resilience & Agility: Attendees will understand how to leverage an agile mindset to navigate both personal and professional challenges, and develop strategies for building resilience in their own lives and teams.
