This event will be moved online.

We are excited to invite you to attend the #IamRemarkable workshop.

#IamRemarkable is a Google initiative empowering women and underrepresented groups to speak openly about their accomplishments in the workplace and beyond, thereby breaking modesty norms and glass ceilings. In this interactive session, you will participate in group discussions and exercises to develop the confidence and skills to promote yourself effectively.

This program aims to:
1. Improve the motivation and self-promotion skills of women and underrepresented groups
2. Change social perceptions and refresh the conversation around self-promotion.
