Imposter syndrome. Stereotypes. Culture. For many reasons, lots of us feel uncomfortable sharing our achievements. During this free 90 minute workshop, you will learn the importance of self-promotion in your personal and professional life and be equipped with tools to develop this skill.

"...According to so many studies, when women self-promote in the workplace, the response is typically negative, because they aren't showing stereotypical “feminine traits” (such as being humble, nurturing, and collaborative). But if they do take on self-promotion and demonstrate pride in their achievements, they tend to be viewed as unlikeable.... The truth is that women and those from other marginalized communities face a double bind: if you don't self-promote, your competence or intelligence is questioned. But if you do self-promote, you're viewed as unlikeable.

This is one of the reasons I'm so proud to be a facilitator with Google's #IAmRemarkable initiative, to help break through the social norms around self-promotion and humility, to provide accessible tools for people to use to practice these skills, and to be part of a community that celebrates and lifts others up.

But don't take it from me - 100% of those who have taken my workshop in the past have reported they felt more confident to self-promote, AND that they were inspired to help others do so. 🎉

 I hope you'll join my next session on September 12, or share with someone who would benefit from some inspiration!"
