Julie Averill, Live and In-Person Event (not AI)

Julie Averill's Chief Impact Officer weaves a deeply personal leadership memoir with the unvarnished business reality of transforming a global company. Julie shares how a career shaped by both opportunity and unique hurdles — including being a gay woman in technology — influenced the way she led and why authenticity became her greatest strength.

While helping grow lululemon from $2B to $10B, she led a sweeping technology transformation and discovered that the hardest parts had nothing to do with systems or code. Instead, they were about trust, identity, and unlearning long-standing habits of self-editing and silence.

The book pulls back the curtain on the messy truth of leadership: building global tech teams across three continents, leading through a pandemic that shattered assumptions about work, and making very real mistakes along the way.
