Mentors, Role Models and Representation: How to enhance your career and empower the next generation

The reality is, women are underrepresented across the world of work, including the technology sector, and whilst this is slowly changing, we need to look at ways to speed up the progress.

In this talk, Amanda will explore:

  • The factors driving this lack of representation and how to break the cycle
  • The importance of having a mentor to help you map out your career path, consider different routes to success and crucially believe in yourself
  • The value of role models to inspire you to achieve your goals and reach your full potential
  • The preconceptions around where to find mentors and role models, what makes a mentor and role model and the importance of challenging these misconceptions
  • How to tap into the power we all have to be mentors and role models, to pave the way for the next generation of female talent
