BOOM is the best thing professionals in creative industries can do to foster new leadership perspectives and give the whole industry a boost. Part networking, part workshop and part conference, attendees at this one-off event will spruce up their careers by gaining inspiration and leaving with undeniable proof on how they helped other creatives for years to come.
In the morning, attendees will be soaking up knowledge from the best in the biz. After lunch they’ll be sharing their knowledge with others around the world.
This conference is organized by SheSays as part of the soft launch of BOOM, a free career advice tool for women in the advertising, film and design industries. We deeply believe in the power of the collective intelligence of women from diverse perspectives and backgrounds. And that this knowledge should be shared with the world.
Reserve your spot now at this unique event. We can't wait to see you and hear what you have to say.
We'll kick-off the day with a Keynote from Corinna Falusi, Chief Creative Officer at Mother NY. She'll talk about how she looks after the careers of one of the most awarded creatives in the world and how you can be one of those. The keynote will be followed by a panel with some industry superstars moderated by Tasha Lufti from Microsoft. (see detailed agenda)
In the afternoon you'll be part of one of five workshops on salary negotiation, interviewing, networking, presentation and leadership skills. You'll be able to get advice and contribute with your own on our career advice tool. This will give you great exposure as well as help others. (see detailed agenda)
