Mary’s presentation will be complemented by a panel featuring diverse cybersecurity roles that showcase the field as a multidisciplinary\, collaborative ecosystem. \n\n\n\nAgenda: \n\n\n\n\n8:00 – 8:30 am: breakfast & networking\n\n\n\n8:30 – 9:30 am: keynote & discussion\n\n\n\n9:30 – 10:00 am: networking\n\n\n\n10:00 am: event conclusion\n\n\n\n\nThank you to ISACA Winnipeg for sponsoring this event! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker bio: \n\n\n\nMary Carmichael is a recognized leader in cybersecurity\, technology risk\, and digital governance\, known for bridging strategy and execution to help organizations adopt innovation with confidence.

SUMMARY:MBWiTech | virtual lunch & learn workshop about Leading From the Inside Out
DESCRIPTION:Register Today\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nNew goals require more than new strategies\, they require deeper awareness and understanding. \n\n\n\nWomen in tech often navigate complex internal and external pressures: imposter syndrome\, visibility challenges\, perfectionism\, and unspoken expectations around leadership\, confidence\, and communication. \n\n\n\nThis workshop focuses on understanding the internal patterns that shape how women show up at work. How we lead\, communicate\, make decisions\, and set boundaries\, particularly in environments where credibility\, visibility\, and confidence are constantly tested. \n\n\n\nRather than starting with external behaviours\, participants will explore what’s happening beneath the surface: the assumptions\, motivations\, and habits that influence everything from delegation and collaboration to confidence and credibility. \n\n\n\nThrough practical psychological frameworks\, participants will gain insight into why leadership challenges show up differently for each person and how self-awareness becomes a powerful tool for sustainable growth\, clarity\, and confidence in tech careers. \n\n\n\nParticipants will: \n\n\n\n\nExplore the internal drivers behind behaviour\, confidence\, and communication in tech environments\n\n\n\nLearn practical models that support meaningful self-awareness and professional growth\n\n\n\nExamine leadership challenges such as: delegation\, decision-making\, and assertive communication\, through the lens of challenges women commonly experience in tech roles\n\n\n\nIdentify internal patterns that support or interfere with visibility\, influence\, and career progression\n\n\n\nSet intentions for the year grounded in self-awareness rather than pressure\, comparison\, or unrealistic expectations often placed on women in tech\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker bio: \n\n\n\nTamara Kroeker is a coach\, facilitator\, and speaker specializing in self-awareness and relational intelligence in the workplace. After more than a decade as an elementary music teacher\, Tamara shifted her focus to leadership development and professional coaching. Her work centers on connection-based leadership\, supporting professionals to lead with understanding\, authenticity\, and trust. At the core of her work is the belief that personal growth is organizational growth. Every shift in awareness strengthens not just the individual but the culture around them. Your strongest team starts with a better understanding of YOU.  \n\n\n\n=== \n\n\n\nManitoba Women in Tech (#MBWiTech) is a community for women and gender-diverse folks working in tech\, along with our allies.
