Please join us on Tuesday, August 18th, for the second session of the “TEDTalk About It Club,” co-hosted by the WTS-Boston Professional Development and Mentoring Committees!
Working in a team environment and the associated soft skills are just as important as technical expertise in today’s workplace. This three-month virtual series focuses on key topics such as teamwork, conflict resolution, and finding a professional sponsor. Each month, participants will gather to watch a featured TEDTalk, followed by facilitated small-group discussions to share insights and perspectives about the video's topic.
The remaining sessions of the TEDTalk About It Club will take place on the third Tuesdays of August and September. Each session stands alone, so you’re welcome to attend any or all events. We look forward to hearing diverse perspectives and engaging in meaningful conversations around the following topics:
- August 18th: "3 Ways to Resolve Conflict" by Dorothy Walker
- September 15th: "How to Find the Person Who Can Help You Get Ahead At Work" by Carla Harris
The second session will be hosted virtually on Tuesday, August 18th, 2026, from 6:00 - 7:00 PM. Registration for the second session will close on Friday, August 14th, 2026.
