About this event
Calling all students, career switchers, or seasoned professionals looking to land that next promotion! Don’t miss this upcoming opportunity! Codecademy teamed up with Louis Melendez of Have Better Conversations to bring you a complimentary workshop to up your self-hype game.
In Be Your Own Hype Person, we’ll learn tools for self-advocacy—speaking about our success and telling our professional story from a place of pride. Sometimes the best advocate you have is yourself! The training will center around three key tenets: Visibility, Boasting without Bragging, & Authenticity. This workshop will leave you feeling like your best self and able to walk into any room with greater confidence and poise.
In the first 40~ minutes of each session, Louis will walk through self-advocacy skills, best practices, and tips he’s picked up over his years of experience as a sales leader and comedy performer. The second 45 minutes is focused on practicing those skills and implementing them in our own words. Participants are encouraged to ask questions throughout the entire session. Each session occurs on two screens, with participants answering questions and prompts from their cell phones.
