The Conversation

Redefining What Strong Leadership Looks Like

Women are often taught that advancing professionally requires choosing between being respected and being liked. But what if kindness is not a weakness to overcome, but a leadership strength to embrace?

BlueFlag Security's Beyond the Code series brings women in technology together to explore the experiences, ideas, and conversations shaping their careers and the industry.

During this intimate luncheon, our panelists will discuss The Myth of the Nice Girl by Fran Hauser and examine how women can lead with empathy, communicate with confidence, establish meaningful boundaries, and pursue ambition without sacrificing who they are.
