We’re excited to announce our next **Women Coders meetup**, hosted at **Culture Amp**!
This month, we’re diving into one of the most important skills for any leader (and future leader): **communication and feedback**.
Whether it’s giving clear direction, fostering collaboration, or navigating difficult conversations, great communication shapes high-performing, inclusive teams.
We’ll be joined by an incredible panel of leaders sharing their experiences and practical insights:
