Leadership Workshop
Leadership does not wait for a job title.
This evening is about the influence you already have and how to use it, whether you are shaping a decision in a meeting or shaping strategy with data.
We are starting with a presentation from Nicola Cadwell, business owner, ex-Microsoft, and former COO of Endeavour Solutions. Nicola walks through her own career journey and the personal, professional and organizational barriers that quietly limit women's progression. Expect honest territory: gender stereotypes, confidence, and the difference between what you want and what you need.
Then we move into a hands-on workshop with Daria Senicheva, Senior Data Analyst at Abnormal AI. Drawing on over a decade partnering with executive and cross-functional leaders in cybersecurity, fintech and SaaS, Daria shows how to turn metrics into influence. You will leave with a framework for linking your work to business goals, a template for building a metrics narrative, and scripts for turning a vague data request into a real conversation about a decision.
