Women’s Innovation Network: It’s OK to F*ck Up

January 11, 2023 @ 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm

Free

Do you ever feel overwhelmed?  How about stressed?  Are you constantly worried about saying the wrong thing?

You are not alone!

During this seminar, we are going to explore how failure can be the best tool for learning and growth.  We will look at how to understand your boundaries and what is a priority for you.  We will delve into what equity looks like in practice, how to measure results, and the importance of adaptability in order to sustain equitable growth.

This will be an interactive seminar where questions are welcomed, and the opportunity to learn from one another through small group discussions will be offered.

So be brave!  Take a chance!  Not everything will catch on fire.

This seminar is a special event offered in collaboration between the Women’s Innovation Network and the Oregon Commission on Black Affairs.
