This past week I had the pleasure of attending ITSMF - Information Technology Senior Management Forum. It was truly inspiring to be around and rub elbows with some very talented industry professionals. The S2 Symposium was filled to the brim by some of our best and brightest, and I am honored to have attended. Throughout my attendance, I was able to capture several quotes that I'd like to share. I learned so much and am looking forward to the next one. - "Think about your walk in life, your voice, and how you can get actively engaged." - "Be the voice of reason, not the expert." - "Be authentic all the time - stop fronting at work." - "Failing to plan for the future is planning to fail." - "My job is what I do, it's not who I am." - "Know who you are, don't let people tell you who you are." - "Seek to understand in order to be understood." - "Statistically, people are going to be smarter than you, but what you can offer them is experience. Don't sell yourself short." - "Find something you love and never work a day again in your life." - "People are afraid to share something because they are afraid they will lose something." "There is always something you can do for the greater good." "It's not about whose holding you back, it's about what are you doing to hold yourself back." "Don't self-select out" "You will fit in when you stop trying to fit it." - Be authentic. If you cant bring your work friends around your personal friends or family, ask yourself are you being your true self. "Don't limit yourself. It's not impossible, it's inevitable." We have imposter syndrome because of what people tell you about yourself." "Know your Superpower." - What are you great at. Do that and don't let nobody stop you." "Sometimes your job is not ready for you and you have to assimilate." Even NBA and Football players have to wear uniforms, right? But best believe they know their Super power. Don't lose yours. #itsmfleaders #itsmf #itsmfsymposium
