Event details

It’s easier said than done to speak up at work—the irony. This may feel especially true for women who need to navigate how to be assertive without worrying about appearing abrasive. After all, research suggests that women who use their voices at work (and break free from passive, people-pleasing gender role norms) can be labeled unlikable, which can take a toll on their careers. But keeping quiet can be even more damaging.

Join us for a discussion with Cornerstone—a leading cloud-based people development software provider—on how to handle this double-bind.

During this webinar, you'll learn about:

  • Knowing when and how to use your voice and speak up at work

  • Sharing your opinion, even when it’s different from others

  • Being assertive to ask for what you want and need in way that’s well-received

  • Amplifying the voices of other women in the workplace and encouraging them to do the same


This event will be recorded and posted here following the event. We'll also email the recording directly to everyone who registers. By registering, you agree to share your email and profile information with the participating company.
