Who makes it

Anastasiia hostAngeliki Hertzfeldt hostWomen in Agile Berlin organizer

In many workplaces, women are taught that doing great work will speak for itself. Yet being good at your job is not always enough. People also need to understand your contributions, recognise your impact, and see your potential. Without visibility, achievements go unnoticed and opportunities pass by quietly. At our next Women in Agile Berlin event, we are excited to welcome two inspiring speakers. 🎤 Elena Kulinicheva, Manager at IQVIA, Real World Commercial Analytics https://www.linkedin.com/in/elena-kulinicheva/ In her talk, Elena explores why professional visibility is a key factor in career growth, and why it has little to do with self-promotion. For Elena, visibility means confidently communicating your value, making your achievements visible, building meaningful professional relationships, and speaking up for the opportunities you want. Together, we will explore: 1\. The role of visibility in career growth and leadership 2\. Practical techniques to communicate your achievements and demonstrate impact 3\. How to speak up and build meaningful professional relationships 4\. How to advocate for the career opportunities you want You will leave with practical tools you can apply immediately to increase your visibility, strengthen your professional presence, and take greater ownership of your career development. 🎤 Maria Mardon, Global Design Leader at Safety io https://www.linkedin.com/in/mariacristinamardon LeaderReady Enough: How to Move Forward Before You Feel Fully Ready Many talented professionals remain invisible not because they lack expertise, but because they are waiting for certainty, confidence, or permission. Yet some of the most important opportunities in our careers appear long before we feel fully prepared for them. In this talk, Maria shares her journey from uncertainty to leadership, including the moments when she questioned whether she was ready for the next step, and why moving forward anyway became an important part of her growth. Together, we will explore: \- Why confidence is often the result of action\, not the starting point \- How to distinguish between being unprepared and simply feeling unready \- How self\-doubt can hold us back\, but also help us identify where we need to learn\, prepare\, or grow \- How to make yourself visible and pursue opportunities before you have all the answers\. You will leave with a new perspective on self-doubt and practical ideas for taking opportunities, sharing your contributions, and making yourself visible before you feel completely ready. 🗓 Agenda 18:30 Doors open & networking 19:00 Elena Kulinicheva: The Power of Being Seen (incl.
