Moving tech leaders from stuck/stressed to flourishing | Tech dropout turned certified coach | Bringing humanity to management | Elevating underrepresented talent 🏳️🌈👩🧑🏽 | Donut snob 🍩 | Dog dad 🐶
Many tech leaders pretend they have everything figured out. They use fake bravado and cultivated social media posts to hide their struggles. But, what would happen if you were REAL instead? Your peers and your team members all struggle with something! Being AUTHENTIC and REAL as a leader and letting people know that we ALL have battles we're fighting builds a more powerful and meaningful connection with people. In a world of El🤡ns, you can choose to lead with humanity, authenticity, and realness. Take inspiration from Luke Zhang, winner of the TechPoint Mira Resilience Award:
04/26/2024 - 2024 TechPoint Mira Resilence Award🏆 "I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference." - Robert Frost I'm having difficulty to come up with the right words for this post since I'm still very overwhelmed by what happened at Mira Award. I didn't expect my impromptu speech to resonate with so many people. Countless of you have reached out in different ways to share your stories and it's so touching and unique in it's own way. So I'm sharing the video here because I know someone out there is struggling and needs to hear this. "You are not alone and everything will be ok." ❤️ TechPoint Mira Awards
