Session: So, you are now a leader ! Now What ? An inclusive and practical perspective on growing as leaders
She’s been included and excluded, empowered and brought down and in her journey from a college grad to running a global organization today, she has built resilient skills that have allowed her to grow her scope, influence and impact across Intel and the technology ecosystem. Nitasha drives the global strategy for the engineering organization that delivers the Internet of Things (IOT) product portfolio at Intel and is the driving force behind a new inclusion initiative for the IoT division. She is focused on creating an environment where her teams can harness the “power of difference” because as Nitasha says, “I am different like you, and it’s when we learn how to harness our differences, we are invincible.” During her session, Nitasha will discuss –
• Leadership: Believing is seeing ( Hint: look in the mirror and you better believe it)
• How do you differentiate executing from leading? Why/How your approach as a leader should be situational and adaptive
• Tips to elevate your leadership to the next level- from leveraging emotional IQ to building your board of advisors
In Short: We will transform what the world thinks of(and imagines) leaders. You are the leaders and the world is watching and this session is about you!
