Description of Presentation *KEYNOTE OUTLINE* It has been known for decades that there is a lack of gender parity in the workplace and an underrepresentation of females in leadership. We are dealing with the pay gap, and the global pandemic has impacted the working environment for women even more in ways we didn’t even think possible. Besides external influences on women’s progression, research has shown that confidence, self-belief, and comfort with self-promotion are significantly impacting how women at all levels maneuver their careers and are able to take risks as they advance their professional goals. With current research suggesting that confidence levels can only rise with age and experience, can women position themselves confidently feeling equal to their male counterparts throughout all career stages? YES. The answer is by controlling one’s life- brand. *KEY TAKEAWAY* • Understand the current landscape of gender parity in business • Learn how our confidence and self-belief are shaped from an early age impacting how women position themselves compared to their male peers in business • Gain clarity on how a controlled life-brand can become a confidence fuel for women at any career stage • Find out how one’s life-brand leads to our true purpose in life and master the skill of controlling it effectively on a consistent basis • Understand the impact a controlled life-brand has on the next generation of females and gender parity in business as a whole as a whole
Additional Information MY WEBSITE: www.irinasoriano.com I am the author of “Generation Brand”, a TEDx and keynote speaker as well as a “life-brand” expert. I define life-brand as our current (and future) digital fingerprint and use a memorable approach to relay the potential challenges and possibilities of a controlled life-brand to students. My international career across EMEA, Asia-Pacific, and the US and my current work as an executive in the technology space, allow me to bring a diverse perspective to my audience and to share relatable stories that make my talks entertaining and memorable. I am part of the TEDx community, a Forbes contributor, as well as a life-brand role model and spokesperson for Seismic, the organization I work for. Personally, I am the stepmother to twin boys and live in New York City with her husband Chris.
