Executive presence is essential for breaking barriers in tech leadership, and the G.I.F.T. framework can help women harness the power of community to get there: 1. Give generously – Share your expertise to mentor and uplift others. 2. Invest in relationships – Build deep, trust-filled connections within your network. 3. Focus on alignment – Contribute where your skills meet your community’s needs. 4. Take initiative – Lead boldly to showcase confidence and competence. Research shows women who engage in purposeful communities not only cultivate executive presence but also amplify their impact by uplifting others.
