Join us for an engaging in-person event on Thursday, November 16, 2023 at 12:00pm (MST) at Platform Calgary's Innovation Centre (407 9 Ave SE, Calgary, AB T2G 2K7).
Collectively Tangled and Peer Guidance, in partnership with Platform Calgary, Innovate Calgary, and Rainforest Alberta, bring you the second session in a six-session series where we explore common challenges experienced by individuals working in the startup and innovation space. This session is a part of Innovation Week YYC!
In this participatory session, we'll focus on imposter syndrome. Often showing up in how we just can't believe that we're good enough or that we deserve to have a seat at the table, AND in how it convinces us that we're the only one feeling that way, imposter syndrome is common amongst entrepreneurs, innovators, and startup employees. Come connect with the community, share strategies and challenges, and increase your resilience. As a participant, you'll walk away with an increased support system, an increased understanding of the support available within the community, and with access to tangible tools that you can utilize to combat those pesky feelings that we all know too well.
Session attendees will have the opportunity to engage in one-on-one advising sessions with Peer Guidance mentors, who can further support with topics discussed each month, or can support with additional business/work-related concerns. Registration for advising sessions will be available on a first come, first served basis following the main event. Additional details provided at the session. Light snacks and refreshments will also be served.
Don't miss this opportunity to learn from peers and gain tools to feel more confident in your place in innovation. Reserve your spot now for Session 2 of the Thriving Minds Series!
This event is a part of Innovation Week - a week of events to showcase the diversity and depth of what’s happening in innovation and technology in Calgary and celebrate the people and the ideas that are having an impact. Learn more!
