Looking to meet more people in tech, exchange ideas, or connect with others who understand the ups and downs of building a career?
Join Tech Ladies and Skillcrush by PowerToFly for a virtual networking event designed to bring our communities together!
Whether you're growing in your current role, exploring what's next, navigating a job search, or simply looking to expand your network, this is a chance to connect with women who are figuring things out, sharing what they've learned, and cheering each other on.
What to expect:
Meaningful connections: Meet people beyond your usual circle and build relationships with others in the Tech Ladies and Skillcrush communities.
Shared insights: Exchange ideas, talk through career questions, and learn from how others are approaching challenges and opportunities in tech.
A little momentum: Sometimes, a conversation with someone who gets it is all it takes to spark a new idea, build confidence, or help you see your next step more clearly.
No networking pitch or elevator speech required! We'll provide icebreaker questions to help get conversations started. Just bring yourself, an open mind, and a willingness to meet some new people.
Like our previous virtual networking events, we'll meet on Zoom and use breakout rooms for quick, meaningful conversations with fellow community members. We'll start with a large group hello and introduction, then aim for 3â4 breakout rounds, each lasting about 10 minutes, so you'll have the chance to meet several people.
Spots are limited, so RSVP to save yours!

Join us for a fireside chat with Stacie Kaiser from Stacie Kaiser Coaching!
---
What is a hiring manager looking for in an interview, and how can you make your experience clear and relevant?
Join us for a fireside chat on preparing for the hiring manager round. Weâll discuss how to frame your experience, speak to your impact, and show how you approach leadership and collaboration. Weâll also explore how your answers might differ when youâre speaking with a hiring manager rather than a peer.
Bring your questions. Youâll have the opportunity to submit them in advance to help shape the conversation.
Target Audience:
Job Seekers and Career Changers
Speaker Information:
Stacie Kaiser (she/her)
For nearly a decade, Stacie Kaiser operated at the center of the hiring process for high-growth tech leaders, from stealth-mode startups to household names like Pinterest, Stripe, and Robinhood. Her expertise spans the entire talent spectrum, from early-career professionals to principal and executive-level leadership.
Today, as the founder and coach of Kaiser Career Coaching, Stacie leverages her extensive recruitment background to empower high-caliber talent from the outside. By pulling back the curtain on the hiring committee's mindset, she helps job seekers demystify the recruitment process, bypass automated filters, and command their professional narratives. She equips candidates with the tactical edge needed to master every critical pivotâfrom delivering knockout interviews to navigating high-stakes salary negotiations.
Driven by the belief that capability is everywhere but access is restricted, Stacie provides the ultimate insiderâs playbook to ensure highly talented individuals don't just get into the room, but excel once they are there.

Thereâs nothing like a supportive group of women in tech to help you get unblocked.
Whether youâre navigating a tricky job search, preparing for performance reviews, or working through a tough conversation with a coworker, weâve got you.
Career Office Hours is a space to get advice from a professional career coach, plus support from peers whoâve been there and are happy to share whatâs worked for them.
This event is an open discussion, so bring your most pressing career questions or simply come to listen, learn, and support your fellow Tech Ladies. This weekly session has become a key time for our Pro Member community to connect, check in, and both give and receive support.
Sessions are not recorded in order to create a safe space for us to share together in confidence.

About the event:
AI can do far more than automate individual tasks. It can become the foundation for how you work, how you decide, and how you scale.
Many professionals and business owners are already using tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and other AI platforms in increasingly agent-like ways, even if they donât call them agents yet.
But what they get out of it varies dramatically.
One personâs AI setup gets more useful every week. Another person is still pasting in the same context, re-explaining their workflow, correcting the same mistakes, and quietly wondering why AI still feels like more work than itâs worth.
The difference isnât the AI platform they chose. It isnât the prompts they used. And it isnât because one person is âbetter at AI.â
The difference is that one person built the right foundation before trying to build an agent.
In this masterclass, youâll learn what AI agents are, the foundational elements every successful AI agent depends on, see where AI work and automation fit together and why that combination is often the biggest source of leverage in your work and business.
Youâll also understand how an AI operating system that isn't tied to any one tool will keep you from becoming dependent on any single AI platform, so your AI strategy can adapt no matter which tools win, change, or disappear.
Level:
Beginner to Intermediate
No coding experience required. Suitable for business owners, operators, consultants, and professionals interested in the strategic and practical implementation of AI systems and automations.

Skip the Resolutions. Design Your Next Chapter.
A live, guided reflection (not a lecture) where you'll define what excites you, name your real strengths, and decide what you want next in your life and career. So youâll walk into 2027 with a clear direction instead of a to-do list.
This 90-minute workshop starts with re-discovering who you are, not what you should do.
We'll cover:
A short breathing exercise to ground and open up
Reflecting and journaling with real time to write
Pinpointing what lights you up versus what you've just gotten good at
Naming your strengths in language you'd actually use in an interview, on your LinkedIn, or in the next conversation with your boss
Youâll leave with:
A written snapshot of who you are, what you want, and why
A framework you can revisit every quarter and annually
One tangible next step you can take towards your goals
One clear intention for 2027 across both life and career
Bring:
A notebook or open doc, a quiet 90 minutes, and honest answers.
Target Audience: Women and allies across every corner of tech: engineering, design, product management, marketing, data, program management, and the roles that don't have a tidy title yet. This is for you if: You're mid-career and doing well on paper, but restless about what's next. You're weighing a change and can't tell what you want. You've tried goal-setting apps, vision boards, and January resolutions, but none of it sticks. You're rebuilding after a layoff, a reorg, or a stretch of burnout and want to choose the next move with intention. You're strong at describing your work but terrible at talking about yourself. You're considering entrepreneurship, freelance, or a portfolio career and are ready to get clear on what you actually want.
Speaker Information: Jennifer Anne Garcia is a Career Strategy Coach and founder of Best Resume Coach. She is the author of Best Resume Recipe, ATS-certified, and a longtime guide for successful, high-achieving corporate leaders and tech-adjacent professionals figuring out their next chapter.

AI is changing how work gets done, and knowing how to put it to practical use is becoming an increasingly valuable skill. Weâre excited to partner with Nelly Yusupova of TechSpeak to bring her AI training cohort to the attention of the Tech Ladies community. If youâve been curious about building your own AI agents or automations but aren't sure where to start, this is an opportunity to learn by doing.
Tech Ladies receive 15% off with code: TechLadies
Learn more about the cohort:
Automate How Work Gets Done with AI Agents Inside your AI Operating System
6-Week Live Training. Â No Coding Required.
Youâll build two working agents or automations for work you want to take off your plate, even if youâve never written a line of code.
And youâll build them inside your own AI Operating System, using the code and core logic that power mine... so when you build the next automation, you can reuse whatâs already there. Â Itâs like building with Lego blocks. You can connect the pieces and build on what you already have.
â
We provide two simple payment options for our Pro Membership, so you
can choose whatâs best for you.
