SCALE 6x: Hello, Can Anyone Hear Me?
I started liveblogging Adaora Onyia's, "Hello, Can Anyone Hear Me?" session, but after a few moments abandoned the attempt – the presentation left me too conflicted to easily commit notes on it to text.
Adaora's presentation described survival tactics for a workplace that I'd prefer never to enter, along with gender roles that I'd rather not find myself or others constrained to.
The SCALE organizers should be posting video from the presentation shortly; I'd recommend viewing it, but also taking it with a grain of salt in the form of books, "Maverick", "Why We Lie", "First, Break All the Rules" and anything by Pema Chödrön
