The Women in Technology at Dev (WITD+) community aims to empower women and non-binary people within their teams, Dev Technology, and the technology industry. The community provides a platform for advocacy, networking, technology education, leadership, and career development for women and non-binary people at all levels in both technical and non-technical roles. WITD+ facilitates a wide range of professional development opportunities to empower and equip women and non-binary people with confidence, resources, and technical and professional skills to achieve their goals and embrace opportunities.

Thursday, October 10: Lift Off: Promote Yourself & Change Your Life
As women and non-binary technologists, we may find ourselves in organizations that constrain our potential, which can lead to feeling unfulfilled and restricted. Lift Off is about creating new paths to launch into your potential, taking one’s career, owning its upward direction, and forging a path forward.
This session focuses on providing the tools and techniques for taking charge of one’s career and choosing to “promote” oneself by first preparing for and then making the move outside of one’s current role and/or organization. Attendees will leave with a concrete plan of action and access to a tool to assist with their Lift Off.
The technology field is hyper fast paced and ripe with professional growth and new opportunities. With the right skills and capabilities, it becomes relatively simple to decide to work for yourself or find an organization that will allow you to thrive and grow. Are you ready for Lift Off?
