Women + Tech Meetup - Why did I do that? How understanding behavior changed my career and can change yours too

Why did I do that?

How understanding behavior changed my career and can change yours too.

In this talk Nikki Evans discuss the journey of her career, critical conversations that shaped her career and how not understanding her strengths led to a huge challenge and eventually to a role that she loves. She will use these stories to help you connect dots in your own journey and help you see how to build your own confidence to ask for what you want, predict what others will do and influence your environment for better results. Nikki invites you all to take a complimentary communication style discovery where you will get a glimpse of how you like to communicate and how you may need to adjust to connect well with others.
