*This was an interview to introduce one of our speakers for the Women of Color in STEM summit in Feb 2020*

Learn how to position yourself and your brand to get hired for jobs which are not posted.

In this episode, I talk with Tamara McLemore who quickly worked up to a PM role in IT through finding the right support.

  • How mentors accelerate growth and creates new opportunities
  • Leaning into personal power to build confidence and skills along the way
  • Why it's important to have a culture that supports you
  • From Tamara's coaching, most women have never asked for a raise, or negotiated additional benefits
  • It's OK to move to different industries as long as you know what you bring to the table
  • Understanding your net worth and formulating it into words to connect with your network on LinkedIn
