Southern AZ Women in the Workforce Presents…The Art of the Pivot: A Panel on Shared Journeys
RegisterWhat does it really take to make a career pivot? Join us to find out!
Beyond the resume updates and new job titles, a career change is a deeply personal process of self-discovery and growth. This panel brings together women from various backgrounds in the tech world to share their unique and interconnected experiences with reinvention. We’ll explore the shared lessons learned during career transitions, including:
- Recognizing when it’s time for a change.
- The role of mentorship and community in navigating new industries.
- Overcoming the fear of starting over.
- Balancing personal life with professional ambitions.
Join us to learn from the collective wisdom of those who have been there, done that, and emerged stronger on the other side. This is your chance to connect, ask questions, and find inspiration for your own professional journey.
