About this course:

No matter our level of professional experience, the most challenging stories we tell are often those about ourselves. Getting personal may help you get that job offer, but it can take a unique emotional toll on writers from marginalized identities. Think Tank for Inclusion and Equity (TTIE) has developed tools to empower writers at any level to navigate these tricky conversations in healthy ways. In Ace the Meeting, we’ll share strategies to highlight your value, honor your humanity, and shine, while acing all those career-making meetings.
