The document discusses job hunting in the current economy. It notes that while business say the job market is better, the effort required to find candidates remains about the same and scattered across different sources. The number one factor for job success is perseverance and how one approaches their job hunt, not the state of the market. It presents a resilience formula for job seekers which includes actions like participating in online discussions, informational interviews, networking, and following up with contacts regularly. Overall it emphasizes that success follows persevering with social job search actions of connecting with people rather than just computers.THINGS.I.CARRY

It discusses how to avoid boring presentations by connecting with the audience, telling a story with facts rather than just opinions or data, focusing the presentation, simplifying slides, not reading slides, and being interested in the topic. The key aspects of preparation identified are understanding the audience, structuring the presentation with a clear beginning, middle, end and transformation point, and including relevant facts to back up the story. Proper preparation and showing enthusiasm are emphasized as critical to an effective presentation.Women in Technology

This document discusses increasing diversity in STEM fields by better promoting the stories of women in STEM. It notes that while 74% of high school girls are interested in STEM, perceived gender barriers still exist. Although women make up half the workforce, they hold less than 25% of STEM jobs. The document advocates improving diversity through highlighting role models like Dr. Cynthia Breazeal in robotics, Jane McGonigal in gaming, and Jonecia Keels and Jazmine Miller who created an educational app. Diversity leads to better business outcomes like higher profits through diverse perspectives.Practical Ways Men Can Address Tech's Gender Imbalance | Startup Week Chattan...

Countless studies show companies with gender-diverse teams outperform those where women are underrepresented. If you aren’t investing in increasing diversity, you’re likely to lose out to competitors who are. And yet, women only hold 25% of computing jobs and 11% of executive roles in Silicon Valley.
This is a big, contentious problem, and we need the best minds—both men and women—to collaborate and work toward a solution. Since men hold the majority of leadership positions at all types of companies, men have an opportunity to make a real difference.
In this Startup Week Chattanooga event, Very's director of marketing Emily Maxie shares the stories of the men who have supported, challenged, and encouraged her so far in my career, and she gives no-nonsense tips for advocating for more gender equality in the workplace.

However, the technology sector still lacks diversity and representation of women in leadership positions. Unconscious bias also exists in hiring that can limit diversity.

It begins by outlining several common myths about women in technology, such as beliefs that there is a large gender gap and that balancing work and family is difficult. Statistics are then presented showing the growing numbers of women in technology fields and degrees earned. However, women remain underrepresented in top leadership positions. The document proposes several strategies for women to "STEP UP" including challenging gender stereotypes, gaining mentors and sponsors, improving negotiation skills, and taking on more risk and responsibility. The overall message is that women must have courage and self-confidence to overcome myths and advance their careers.8 D&I Trends for 2018

This webinar will introduce the Grid Edge Security and Interoperability Alliance, or GEISA, an effort within LF Energy to address application interoperability at the very edge of the utility network: meters and other distribution automation devices. Over the last decade platform manufacturers have introduced the ability to run applications on electricity meters and other edge devices. Unfortunately, while many of these efforts have been built on Linux, they haven’t been interoperable. APIs and execution environment have varied from one manufacturer to the next making it impossible for utilities to obtain applications that they can run across a fleet of different devices. For utilities that want to minimize their supply chain risk by obtaining equipment from multiple suppliers, they are forced to run and maintain multiple separate management systems. Applications available for one device may need to be ported to run on another, or they may not be available at all.
GEISA addresses this by creating a vendor neutral specification for utility edge computing environments. This webinar will discuss why GEISA is important to utilities, the specific issues GEISA will solve and the new opportunities it creates for utilities, platform vendors, and application vendors. 2025-02-27 Tech & Play_ Fun, UX, and Community.pdf
