Fanning Flames and Breaking Biases - IWD Fireside Chat
8 March, 2022 | 5:00 AM - 6:00 AM (UTC) Coordinated Universal Time
- Format:
Livestream
Topic: Personal and Business Development
Language: English
Teaming up this International Women's Day, the Microsoft Reactor and Tech Inclusion bring you this virtual fireside chat to discuss experiences of being in the gender minority in tech, and how workplace culture has a huge impact.
With even the most illustrious tech companies struggling to crack 20-25% representation of women in technical roles, the tech industry can be a bit of a boy's club. Our guests will take you through some of their personal experiences from their tech careers, and tell you how these moments, positive or negative, shaped them and their pathway through the tech world.
We'll talk about how culture is not just something thrust down upon us from management, but rather is something built from the collective behaviours of every team member, where everyone has the power to take a step in the right direction. For the women watching, we hope to give you the confidence to insist on more inclusive behaviours to #BreakTheBias and create welcoming workplaces. And for our allies, we'll give you some everyday attitudes and practical tips to help women around you feel supported, and lay the path for creating an inclusive workplace culture that truly celebrates and flourishes from diversity.
We'll have plenty of time for audience questions, so come along and join the discussion, and poll the wisdom of our fantastic fireside guests.
Join us on March 8th at 4pm to discuss and celebrate International Women’s Day.
