Lightning Talks and Discussions - Professional Development

Huge thank-you to Cypress and Grove Brewery for offering a venue for our lightning talks!

Give a 5-10 minute talk, lead a 5-10 minute group discussion, and/or just come and learn! You don't have to be an expert - share what you know, or engage the audience in finding answers for your own questions about tech or careers. We will have a projector or TV for slides if you want them for your talk, but they are not necessary. Potential topics: Leadership, Negotiation skills, Pregnancy in the Workplace, Single Parents and workplace balance, How I Got Started in {Career}, Unconventional Paths to Tech, Mentoring, Resume Best Practices, Entrepreneurship, Teaching Tech, Managing Teams, Professional Communication, or any tech/career topics that interest you!

As always, we define "in tech" as anyone in or around a tech company, supporting tech, or interested in tech, and anyone that supports women working in tech is welcome to join and share.
