SUMMARY:The Wrong Map: Navigating Career Growth & Leadership
DESCRIPTION:About Event\nThe Wrong Map: Navigating Career Growth & Leadership \nMost women in product have been given the wrong map. \nWe are taught that career growth is a performance game: work hard\, deliver exceptional results\, communicate clearly\, and be confident. \nBut if performance alone determined advancement\, many of us would be further along than we are. \nReal career growth often happens in places we have not been taught to look. Strivers can rise once they stop confusing effort with actual advancement and learn how to read the workplace system. \nKnowing the system is the bridge between striving and rising. \nWhen we do not understand how the system works\, we often mistake a literacy gap for a confidence gap. Your stuckness may not be a confidence problem; it may be a systems-literacy problem. \nJoin Kalpashree Gupta\, a former Product Leader at Zelle and American Express\, who helps women in product navigate the career game that was never fully explained to them and is now changing faster than ever. \nIn this session\, Kalpashree will share the “C” in her A.P.C. framework: Constraints. This part of the framework focuses on developing the ability to see\, hedge\, and convert constraints instead of becoming trapped by them. \nOne of the most important forms of systems literacy is understanding constraints—not simply as barriers\, but as forces you can learn to read\, navigate\, and leverage. \nKalpashree will share how she navigated restructures\, immigration challenges\, leadership changes\, layoffs\, infertility and parenting\, ageing parents\, and role redefinition while continuing to grow her impact and career. \nYour takeaways from this workshop:\n    Understand why you may be playing a performance game inside a system that operates as a power game\n    Identify the hidden constraints shaping who advances and who does not\n    Learn three practical steps to work with constraints: See the Constraint → Hedge the Constraint → Convert the Constraint\n    Understand why you should shop for the boss\, not only the job\, when evaluating your next opportunity\n    Identify which parts of your career may be disrupted by AI\n    Discover the uniquely human strengths you need to remain relevant and thrive\n    Build a new map for protecting your agency as AI reshapes the future of work \nEvent Details:\n    Date: Friday\, 7th August\n    Time: 7:00 PM – 8:00 PM IST\n    Format: Virtual\n    Registration: Approval Required \nYour registration is subject to host approval.
