(quoted from the website)
The Male Ally Summit comes after a successful event on March 13, 2017 in NYC called, "The Role Male Allies, Advocates, and Mentors have in Retaining Women in Tech", we had over 180 in attendance. We know this year will be just as impactful.
This year we bring back some of the same amazing speakers such as David Smith and Brad Johnson who are co-authors of, "Athena Rising: How and Why Men Should Mentor Women"; Evin Robinson (Co-founder, New York on Tech); Matt Wallaert (Chief Behavioral Officer, Clover Health). We add to the agenda, Heather Cabot (Co-author, Geek Girl Rising); Bryan Liles (Software Engineer, Heptio); Avis Yates Rivers (CEO and Author, Technology Concepts Groups International), Dennis Kozak (SVP of Next Generation Portfolio Strategy, CA Technologies) and others!
At this event, we bring Advocates, Mentors, Sponsors and many others under the umbrella, "Ally" with the vision of enlightening ourselves to be the change agents who will transform the companies and environment we interact with, and in, on a daily basis. You will leave the Summit with the following knowledge:
- A guide to mentor women in the workplace
- Best practices to sponsoring female employees
- Steps you can take to become an ally for women in your workplace
