Y’all! I’m so excited for my keynote on April 14th @railsconf. I won’t be repeating this talk at other conferences and the format / style is different from my previous talks. If you don’t yet have a ticket get on that. twitter.com/railsconf/stat…

Amazing speaker 
She spoke about branding your way to your dream career and about branding on social media, she said and I quote "post as if your next employer is watching"
It got to me, it really did

👇. Ditto to racial diversity. If a speaker lineup looks nothing like the real world, that is a catastrophic failure that needs to be investigated and undone before announcing. "None applied" isn't an explanation, it's a symptom and a smell.

Replying to @samxwhite
If no women have applied for your CFP, the thing to do isn't to shrug and continue with your all-male lineup. The first thing to do is figure out why. The second thing to do is fix that

Due to inclement weather around the U.S. causing extensive power outages, we have extended the CFP deadline by 24 hours.
Hopefully this takes some burden off any would-be speakers if they find themselves without internet access tonight.

I once TOTALLY forgot where I was in a story. Had to ASK the audience. had to cajole them to tell me. They finally did. I continued. At the end? They said it was the best joke they’d ever heard. Me PRETENDING to be confused. They WANT you to be brilliant. twitter.com/cczona/status/…
It's brave and generous to do the work of contributing to a conference/community as a speaker.
Quote Tweet
Conference audiences are always rooting for you as a speaker. They want you to succeed. If you fumble, if you're nervous, if you forget how your sentence was going to end, if you make an error, they will root for you. Because community supports people who are brave and generous.

Organizers, don't let up. Notice who's still underrepresented in our industry and underrepresented at podiums. Intersectional, especially: racism + sexism work together to exclude WoC from being heard and heeded. Transmisogyny. Ableism. Ageism. Classism. Keep opening doors wider.

Who is newer to speaking and trying to do more speaking engagements this year?
Drop what you *love* to speak about. Seasoned speakers, let’s use this list to make some recommendations and get new folks on stage!

I'll be talking about "You The Keynoter", how you can lay a path now as an emerging speaker toward developing into a keynoter, and how to excel when you get there. Diversity at the podium means diversity at all levels, including the most heeded ones. So let's get you there. twitter.com/gdcfpday/statu…

"How do you secure a speaking engagement in the first place?" is a common question, with non-obvious answers if you haven't had access to the professional networks where that knowledge is taken for granted. Great opportunity.

👍. A necessary step for increasing diversity is gathering _self-reported_ data on marginalized people's involvement, and tracking Y2Y how efforts impact underrepresentation.
Estimating isn't a proxy, or accurate. Not all identities and experiences are visible. Many aren't. twitter.com/asteracode/sta

On a call this morning and got a bug in my head - anyone here good with stocks (RSU, vesting, etc) and can explain the basics and where to learn more and pitch that as a CFP for @DianaInitiative - it's a really important topic that so few people know about #CFP
Neat twist!

Looking at you, conference organizers...
Quote Tweet
#JuneteenthConf has proven that there are plenty of Black speakers who are READY for your stages.
I hear a LOT of talks and these are top caliber. And this lineup is just a small sample of Black tech speakers.
The notion that we are hard to find or will require mentoring is BS.
