Join Women Who Code for an event on public speaking. Even if you are not considering giving a talk, you will learn something for sure! Plus you will network and socialize with others in the Boston tech scene.
---- Agenda ----
- Rayshauna Gray | Public Historian at the Cambridge Historical Society & Harvard University
Rayshauna gave an amazing presentation on overcoming impostor syndrome at the global CFP workshop this year, and will be giving a longer version of the talk from that event. She will be taking questions afterwards.
- Then, for the rest of the event, we will have proposal writing roundtables to get feedback on proposals, reviews of abstracts, come up with ideas for talks, or find events to give those talks at.
Looking forward to seeing you there!
IMPORTANT NOTE: Attendees need to have ID on them to check-in for Building Security purposes, Kyruus cannot accept walk-ins.

And in the vein of public speaking...
Do you want to speak at our next event?
If you'd like to give a lightning talk (or longer talk!) at a future event, please fill out this form (http://bit.ly/wwcode-boston-speaker-signup). If you'd like to speak but don't have a topic in mind, let us know and we can help you brainstorm. The talk doesn't have to be technical and the only requirement is that others should be able to learn something from it. Lightning talks are short (~10 minutes + a couple of minutes for Q&A) so shouldn't require a lot of preparation.
