Yesterday I had the awesome opportunity to sit-down and conduct a fireside chat with Brooke McAnaney GVP, Content Security Technology & Operations for Warner Bros. Discovery as part of the EmpowerHer Returnship Program for Women Re-Entering the Workforce presented by The WICT Network. Brooke McAnaney was incredible and the women in the cohort were dynamic. If these ladies represent even a portion of the people returning to the workforce then we are all in great hands. We touched on emerging technology topics from Artificial Intelligence to presenting yourself with the same care digitally that you apply to in person meetings. My message was fairly simple, "Artificial intelligence is not a technology wave that any of us can afford to sit out. You owe it to yourself to see your talents augmented with AI" If you are re-entering the workforce take solace in knowing that in what is one of the greatest technological waves of all time that even those of us who have been working for decades without interruption are forced to learn new ways of thinking and to work with new tools. This is an excellent time for you to come back with new perspectives and insights that are not only desired but also needed. Thank you to Jessa Cooke for organizing today's session and to all the participants let's be sure to stay connected. You are needed and we thank you for answering the call. #thewictnetwork #leadership #empowerher #afiniti #artificialintelligence #warnerbrosdiscovery #emergingtechology #firesidechat

A recent Accenture report emphasizes the need for organizations to have “omni-connected” experiences for employees. But what does omni-connected mean? It is the complete experience of work—of feeling connected, of being included and knowing your value—regardless of physical location. When people feel highly connected to each other, their leaders and workplace, their companies stand to gain a 7.4% revenue boost per year. Accenture’s suggestions for creating more omni-connected experiences are: 1. Instill modern leadership. 2. Grow a thriving culture. 3. Create a flexibility framework. 4. Empower people through technology. Click the link to learn more tips for improving employee connection: https://ow.ly/PwRF50ORaEg

Advice to “follow your passions” may be keeping women out of STEM, one report discovers. In fact, a study found that when both students and adults are advised to follow their passions, they are more likely to choose fields that are consistent with what was expected of their gender (such as women choosing jobs in the arts or healthcare, and men choosing careers in science and business). To break this barrier, it is suggested that individuals be more open-minded when considering their next career path. You never know what your next passion will be!
