Participants will learn more about the impact that women leaders can have on their organizations—and the impact that leadership roles can have on the women who hold them. \n Featured guests will share their perspectives on these issues: \nHow do you define leadership? How does your definition manifest in your leadership style?\nHow has your leadership style adapted and evolved over your career?\nHave you benefited from a mentor or coach? Have you taken on this role for more junior women in your workplace?\nHow do you manage work/life balance?\nWhat advice would you offer to other women who are looking to lead in their workplaces or start a company?\n  \nPower Pairing\nAn intimate\, online workshop curated for C-Suite\, VP and Director-level executive women from tech companies\, and those who aspire to senior leadership.

SUMMARY:TAO Small Business Cybersecurity Series: Apply Your New Cybersecurity Knowledge
DESCRIPTION:The digital shift for all business caused by the pandemic last year has resulted in expanded opportunity for connection and growth. This shift has also resulted in an increase of cyber attacks\, more points of failure for a breach and a renewed vigilance of business owners to protect employees and customers. As companies commit to permanent “work from home” and hybrid work situations and industries continuing to automate\, cyber risk will grow and evolve as quickly as solutions are implemented. \nWith these new realities in mind\, organizations should be baking cybersecurity and privacy into every business decision or plan. Whether you are a solo-preneur\, are adding a digital component to your brick and mortar business or automating your manufacturing facility\, this 5-month series will provide you insight to protect your business online. \nPlease join the Oregon Small Business Development Center\, Mount Hood Community College\, MasterCard and the Technology Association of Oregon for one hour a month – May through September – to learn the fundamentals of cybercrime and cybersecurity to better protect your business. By the end of this series\, you will be equipped with resources and knowledge to have safe and secure digital business components. \nHow to apply your new cybersecurity knowledge\n \n11:00 AM-12:00 PM\n \nWhat you will learn: \nHow to apply the knowledge from the previous sessions\nOpportunities and resources available to your business through the SBDC network \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:Zapproved Event: Voices of Equity - The Equity of Bodies & Movement
DESCRIPTION:Movement is important for not only our physical health\, but our mental health too. \nWe’re not talking about the physical activity of exercise (although that does all sorts of great things for you) but the act of moving our bodies. Our bodies are meant to move and the last year we asked them to sit. Sometimes for long hours in front of a screen without giving them a break from that sitting posture. Without doing the regular daily things we do\, which believe it or not all form part in the building of our bodies. Going to the grocery store\, driving to work\, taking work out classes at a space\, visiting friends\, traveling\, etc. Join us for a talk with movement enthusiast and educator\, Allison Jacks as she offers us a new way to think about how we move through our day and through the world. \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:Zapproved Event: How do we Cope in an Ever-Changing World?
DESCRIPTION:The demands and challenges on many of us today feel heavier than ever. How do we lighten them now? \nMore and more of us are waking up to our internal and collective traumas. The status quo is not working. \nWe’re realizing that we’re not going to be able to just “muscle through” this moment of reckoning with our individual\, cultural\, and structural inequities. \nWe’re becoming aware of just how much anxiety\, pain\, work burnout\, and struggle in relationships we have inside our bodies… \nWe’re seeking answers and connection with others who are awake\, and ready to liberate ourselves together. \nBut how are we supposed to reach the “mountaintop” of self-actualization when the ground beneath us is constantly shifting? (Heck\, how are we supposed to make it through the DAY?) \nRegister now to explore these insights and more: \n\nIf you’re struggling these days\, you’re normal.\nHow to stop pretending that we “have it all together”\nRecognizing the cultural expectations we’ve internalized as our own: perfectionism\, rapid growth for its own sake\, defensiveness\, and so on\nEven when we know they’re hurting us…WHY do we get stuck in these culturally imprinted patterns?\nHumanizing the way we work\, so we can honestly bring our whole selves and love what we do!\nAnd hope for how we can move through our multiple layers of challenges\, TOGETHER in an authentic and uplifting community\n\nJoin Zapproved as we add insights and tactics to our toolkit that allow us to make space for our individual and shared traumas — and ultimately liberate ourselves and others. \nLindsey T.H. Jackson (she/her) is an empowered\, Black\, Divorced\, Single Mother of Two\, Artist and CEO of LTHJ Global. \nShe’s creating the future of work with her team\, leading the revolution from the inside out. After conducting research on the root cause of our current culture of pressure and burnout\, Lindsey spent 15+ years clearing the path to wellness alongside leaders\, teams\, and organizations. Now she’s codified the framework for approaching life’s messiness\, which doesn’t disappear when we log on to work. \nRegister here.
