Rethinking Networking and Inclusivity in Tech Events
Networking within the tech industry, especially at events targeted at the Black community, often feels more like a social affair than a professional gathering. We voice our skepticism about the effectiveness of these events and advocate for more inclusive and meaningful opportunities that align with the true professional aspirations of attendees. Highlighting the lack of Black representation in senior leadership, we emphasize the need for networking events that facilitate real connections with decision-makers. Additionally, we share our experiences with "Talks With Ash" on Clubhouse, underscoring the importance of respect and relatability in professional settings.
Financial struggles in the UK, from rising transportation costs, are taking a toll on many. We explore the burdens of the tax system, the challenges of raising a child, and the necessity of financial education often learned through modern platforms. Negotiating salary and maintaining privacy boundaries during job applications are crucial topics we address, offering advice on how to navigate these tricky waters.
