Introverted Leadership Panel Tonight!

<<First Name>>

We hope to see you tonight at 6:30pm ET for an introverted leadership panel with STC leaders. There are many misconceptions about introverts and many feel challenged on the journey to leadership. We are thrilled to welcome several well-known introverted leaders from across the Society for Technical Communication as our panelists.

During this panel, our panelists will share how being introverted impacted their leadership, how they lead, the intersection between tech comm and introversion, how they lead introverted leaders, and more.

Please bring your questions for our panelists! They will give their best advice on how to address the challenges and opportunities of introverted leadership in STC and beyond.
