SXSW 2021 is over! The online version was still a whirlwind of so many incredible events–and because they were recorded, I didn’t even have to pick from among them. I saw Stacey Abrams and Pete Buttigieg, and fantastic sessions on:
-McKinsey’s Women in the Workplace Report with Jess Huang, moderated by Femily (she/they);
-Beating the Backlash against BIPOC Womxn Professionals, with Adrienne J. Lawrence, Robert Haddow Beaven (He, Him, His), Maytha Alhassen, and Tammy Cho; and
-Introspection + Empathy, with Jamil Zaki, Ethan Kross, and Laurie Santos.
My session on The Empathetic Workplace had well over 500 registrants, and I was able to connect with thoughtful, caring leaders from all over the world about their efforts to create a more compassionate workplace, now and for the future. I’m so grateful for the efforts by organizers to put on this amazing event.
