Description

Confidence has become the go-to advice for women in tech, but it’s not the full story. Behind every self-doubt or hesitation sits a web of invisible expectations, social conditioning, and systemic bias.

In this live Girl Geek Network session, we’ll unpack:

  • Why “just be confident” is flawed advice
  • The difference between confidence and credibility
  • How to shift power dynamics without changing who you are

You’ll leave with actionable steps to advocate for yourself authentically and start closing your own leverage gap at work.

🎯 Perfect for: Women in tech, emerging leaders, and allies who want to understand the invisible barriers shaping career progression.
