Had the privilege of presenting on Cultivating Executive Presence to a phenomenal group of Latina lawyers during the Hispanic National Bar Association’s Latina Leadership Academy today in Washington, DC! 🙌 The engagement and energy were incredible. Here are 3 key takeaways we discussed: 1. How we show up matters – executive presence is about projecting confidence and competence, while staying true to who you are. 2. Traditional Latino values, like humility and respect, can both enhance and challenge how we lead in corporate environments. 3. The 3 pillars of executive presence – gravitas, communication, and appearance – are essential for navigating and excelling in leadership roles. Loved the conversation and the insights shared! 💼✨ #LatinaLeadership #ExecutivePresence #WomenInLaw

I am excited to be presenting my PhD findings on #WomeninSTEM at this year’s Dare to Be AAUW’s National College Conference for Women Student Leaders! Today is the last day to register! The conference is at the end of the month. I can’t think of a better place and a better audience to debut my findings. Some of this year’s goals are: - Leadership Development: NCCWSL offers hands-on workshops and panel discussions that provide life-changing leadership insights. - Personal Growth through Risk-Taking: NCCWSL encourages stepping outside of one's comfort zone and taking risks. This setting forges stronger leaders capable of making a lasting impact. - Skill Enhancement: Workshops, expert panel discussions, and interactive sessions at NCCWSL cover topics such as effective communication, decision-making, problem-solving, and teamwork. #AAUW #NCCWSL2024 https://lnkd.in/d-6qJ_sQ
