Many women see their career progression as a step-function where they continue doing hard work and this will get them their next job, promotion, or raise. The behaviors that got them to this point in their career unfortunately become self-limiting, leaving them feeling stuck and frustrated.

In this session, from Vishu Cook of Lowe's, she offers a framework to identify, acknowledge, and overcome habits that will get you unstuck. See the whole talk on our YouTube channel!

Charlotte’s first WIT conference

I'm frequently reminded of the underrepresentation of women in tech, especially women of color. Many companies cite a shortage of talent and the homogeneity of the talent pool. At the same time, new technologists are struggling to break into the industry.

In creating Fleurix, I wanted to focus on supporting entry-level women and building a sustainable pipeline of talent. Helping people start in the industry or providing support for early-stage talent has immense impact as well as importance. As a developer who had many doors closed because I didn't have a computer science degree, I am grateful to my current and previous employers who invested in me.

I’ve also benefited from technology events. Researching women-focused conferences, I noticed a lack of local options and minimal options within the southeast. Most of the events were cost-prohibitive on an entry-level salary.

There are several strong local communities focused on increasing diversity in tech. I want to celebrate and unify these efforts through this conference, right here in Charlotte.
