#IAmRemarkable is a global movement that empowers everyone, including underrepresented groups, to celebrate their achievements in the workplace and beyond while challenging the social perception around self-promotion. At the heart of our movement is a 90-minute workshop open to everyone. #IAmRemarkable started at Google in 2016 and has seen continued scale and impact principally because of the strength of its community. The benefits of self-promotion are vast — including taking control of how others perceive you and making them understand the unique contribution you can make.

Event Detail:

The 90-minute workshop helps participants learn how to speak openly about their accomplishments. The workshop is divided into three parts:

1. Discuss: Increase awareness of data and research regarding self-promotion and bias

2. Practice: Practice articulating individual achievements and sharing with others

3. Act: Reflect, discuss, and share take-home exercises to increase comfort with self-promotion

Conclusion

The benefits of self-promotion are vast — including taking control of how others perceive you and making them understand the unique contribution you can make. One of the big hurdles women and underrepresented groups face when tackling the leadership gap is practicing self-promotion — or vocally expressing their achievements in a working environment. #IAmRemarkable will provide 212NYC Members the opportunity to learn and practice these skills, take control of their professional narrative, and enhance their careers.
