There is no talent shortage in Data & Analytics!
It is widely agreed that the talent shortage is one of the greatest challenges for businesses everywhere.
Data & Analytics teams especially struggle to find highly skilled professionals. With the need for more advanced analytics, new cloud technologies and machine learning, demand has skyrocketed.
In this session, I will argue that the talent shortage might be a misconception and how a people-centric approach to recruiting and talent development can fix that.
We will also explore how every team member can help create an inclusive workplace that everybody is happy to work in.
Breaking the Silence: The Impact of Microaggressions on Mental Health
Microaggressions are often dismissed as minor offenses or unintentional actions, yet their cumulative impact can have profound effects on mental health. Drawing from my unique perspective as a data technology leader and former paramedic, I will uncover the hidden trauma caused by these subtle actions and words. We'll explore what microaggressions are, how they inflict real psychological harm, and the ripple effect this trauma has on mental health and workplace culture.
This session will equip attendees with a more profound understanding of these issues and actionable strategies to mitigate microaggressions in the workplace. Together, we'll examine how creating a culture of awareness, empathy, and inclusion can foster not only a healthier work environment but also more innovative and collaborative teams. Let's reshape the narrative and work toward a data-driven industry where everyone feels valued and welcomed.
