IN-PERSON | Voice & Vision | Findable, Not Flashy: Designing Visibility Without the Performance | Sponsored by Hallmark Cards
Voice & Vision is a powerful three-part series designed to help professionals, especially women, navigate the nuanced terrain of leadership communication. Whether you’re wrestling with when to speak up, how to show up without putting on a performance, or how to stay grounded in tough conversations, this interactive series invites you to lead with clarity, integrity, and courage.
Part Two: Findable, Not Flashy: Designing Visibility Without the Performance
You’re told to “build a brand.” Talk more in meetings. Share your wins. Get on LinkedIn.
But what if you just want to be respected for the work that actually matters?
The visibility strategies we’re sold are often built on borrowed norms, shaped by louder personalities, higher tolerance for self-celebration, and systems that reward confidence over contribution.
This session cuts through the noise around self-promotion and explores what authentic visibility actually looks like. We’ll map the quiet signals that tell the truth about who you are, what you bring, and where you lead, without turning yourself into a persona.
Join us for part three!
