Please join us on Tuesday, September 15th, for the final “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.
We look forward to hearing diverse perspectives and engaging in meaningful conversation about the final discussion topic:

The final session will be hosted virtually on Tuesday, September 15th, 2026, from 6:00 - 7:00 PM. Registration for the session will close on Friday, September 11th, 2026.
