Women in the Tech Industry: Discovering Your Personal Strengths

About this session

Interested in new professional opportunities? ServiceNow is hiring in India. Please visit their page on PowerToFly to view their open roles.

Do you struggle with knowing your worth at your company?

If you answered ‘yes’, don’t worry – you’re not alone!

Many question their personal strengths and values in their career, and it’s an especially common issue among women in the professional realm.

No matter the level of seniority in their organization or the amount of work experience they have, this uncertainty can happen to anyone. In this chat, ServiceNow’s Prajwala Perumbudur (Senior Manager, Cloud Applications - Global Cloud Services) will join us to share her journey discovering her personal strengths while dealing with Imposter Syndrome. And Nick Kelly (Director, Custom Support APJ), will join Priya to share different ways in which we can support women in the industry.

During this chat, Prajwala and Nick will dive deeper into how identifying your value can lead to professional growth and development. Because self-advocacy plays a huge role in career growth, it’s important to understand who you are, what your strengths look like, and why your company needs you. Once you can fully own your identity and vocalize your professional worth, then you can take charge of your career and seek out the opportunities needed to grow.

In this chat you will learn:

  • How to ask for feedback
  • How to connect with a mentor
  • How to listen to the company's needs and find your growth opportunities
  • How to do your self-assessment and see what brings you joy and energy when going to work
  • How to push yourself out of your comfort zone and be open to taking on new challenges
