Speaking and writing
I write and speak to work out what I'm learning, and to hand other leaders something they can try with their own teams.
Talks
The conversations leaders tend to avoid
Many of my talks are about the conditions people work in. They affect people's confidence, their health, and whether they can do their best work, so leaders need to be able to discuss them openly.
I've also spoken at Enterprise Experience, Design at Scale, SXSW, and the Latinas in Tech Summit.
