Maximize Your Potential: Be the CEO of Your Success

Too many organizations still view employees as compliers, not creators. In reality, employees are catalysts of amazing innovation!

This talk discusses how to ensure respect and humanity remain the principal tenets of new technologies.

Inclusivity Through Allyship and Intersectionality
