Was part of your action plan during #ShutDownSTEM to get out there and tell your story? The primary mechanism for visibility in our field is who owns the narrative. In STEM, it is critical that we know who we are and how our backgrounds have shaped the value we bring to the field, but we rarely get the chance to practice our own storytelling. This 90-minute webinar will explore the components of a great story, spotlight guest authors, and invite you to submit a written pitch of your own to scientific societies.
From the “first computers,” the ENIAC programmers honored at our Hall of Fame Awards, to Gloria Steinem inspiring WITI women to reach for the stars, to Donna Shirley who designed the first Mars Rover, and Patricia Arquette for saying it like it is. Every WITI Summit has been a historical event.
