About this Event
Lightning talk
What? Beyond the Gender Binary
Who?Simo Krucker, Digital Business Models @ Siemens
Many people never question or think about gender identity, yet it can have a profound impact on our lives and interactions with others. Simo identifies as nonbinary and grapples with this topic every day. In this session, they will speak about nonbinary gender identities and the limitations that rigid gender roles can bring to your life and the workplace.
Who should attend?
All interested and curious individuals and those who would like to create safer and welcoming spaces for nonbinary and gender non-conforming people
Why attend?
Rigid gender roles can unconsciously limit potential and opportunities at the workplace. While we often speak about creating more opportunities for women, this meetup will offer different goggles to examine gender equity.
