Speaker: Hannah Burns Dunham

"The Psychology of Communication in Male Dominated Careers"

What does it take to speak up, lead boldly, and be heard, even when you're one of the only women in the room? This talk dives into the psychological dynamics at play for women in STEM and other male-dominated industries, where communication isn’t just about speaking up - it’s about confidence, perception, and power.

Women will leave this session with practical and actionable takeaways for communicating & leading with confidence in 2026!
