Women + Leadership: Great Leaders Don’t Need a Title

January 23, 2020Toronto, OntarioMalaparte

We can all be leaders. Who needs a title when you are already powerful! We can all take action: Whether it’s mobilizing the talents of everyone at the grassroots, in the boardroom or as entrepreneurs risking it all. Come join us on January 23rd, 2020 at Malaparte, on the top floor of the TIFF Bell Lightbox, for our fourth annual Red Hat Canada Women in Leadership event for a series of fireside chats on how we all hone our leadership talents to close the gender gap.

Be inspired by various female trailblazers who won’t let anything stand in their way as they push for inclusion and equality for all. No one handed them a podium. They created their own. They are setting an example. They want to inspire everyone to take action. 

Don’t miss this opportunity to come together with our community to be inspired, connect with other leaders, share your story, and celebrate our mosaic of diverse female talent in the tech industry.

Who should attend: This is an invitation-only event for tech leaders of all generations and genders.  Feel free to bring a friend (please have them register separately).
