TechWomen Mid-Winter Webinar 2025 – Managing the Unmanageable Without Imploding
Life in tech is fast-paced, ever-changing, and sometimes – let’s be honest – overwhelming. But it’s also full of opportunity, growth, and powerful moments of connection.
This year’s TechWomen Mid-Winter Webinar is a virtual fireside chat with members of the TechWomen Council, who will share stories of navigating the unpredictable world of IT — the highs and lows, the lessons learned, and the moments that shaped them.
From returning to work after big life changes, to speaking on the global stage, to embracing neurodiversity in leadership – this is an honest, insightful kōrero about what it really takes to thrive in tech.
What we’ll explore:
- Highs & Lows: Returning back to work – Eva Sherwood Hayter
- Opportunity & Growth: Speaking at APEC to influence changing policies for more equitable workplace – Samar Alrayyes
