"Don't be too approachable, it comes off as weak." "You need a level of arrogance to command respect, otherwise people will see you as just a nice young lady from Greece." "Your subordinates should fear you a bit in order to show you proper respect."

What biases do we hold about the behavior of women leaders in tech? How can we confront them?

Natasa will also share personal examples of how Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion have transformed her worldview.
