One of the big hurdles women and underrepresented groups face when tackling the leadership gap is practicing self-promotion — or vocally expressing their achievements in a working environment. The benefits of self-promotion are vast — including taking control of how you're perceived by others, and making them understand the unique contribution you can make. The #IamRemarkable workshop helps participants learn how to speak openly about their accomplishments. The workshop is divided into three parts: - Discuss: Data and research about self-promotion and unconscious biases. - Practice: Main exercises to help participants articulate their achievements and practice self-promotion. - Go home strong: Discussion and take-home exercises. The goal of the workshop is to not only teach the skills of self-promotion but also to increase awareness of the hurdles women and underrepresented groups face in the workplace and beyond. There is high value in having allies in the room as they will support driving the required behavior change. Dinner will be provided!
