Workshop Content

Learn to own your expertise and present yourself and your accomplishments with confidence. This workshop will help you think more expansively about your knowledge and experience, laying the foundation for you to convert your expertise into thought leadership and become a conference speaker and open source contributor.

In this workshop, you'll go through a few exercises around our theme, "Speak Your Truth", generate a list of topics you can write or speak about, present yourself as an expert, and get introduced to writing, speaking, and coding for open source. The workshop will also have new exercises for those who have previously attended.

Write/Speak/Code

Write/Speak/Code is a non-profit focused on increasing the visibility and leadership of women and non-binary coders*. We were one of the first tech organizations founded by mid-career women and focused on women and non-binary coders at a mid-career level (average years of experience is 7, up to 30), we offer free supervised play areas for children and nursing rooms at our events, and we have been a catalyst for hundreds of women and non-binary coders* to become thought leaders in the tech industry.
