Becoming A Badass Leader
Hey ,
In our latest Tech Ladies Talk, we featured Alex Swift, Director of Analytics Engineering and Data Science at HubSpot, who shared valuable insights on leadership and growth in tech. Alex’s journey emphasizes the importance of curiosity, resilience, and staying connected with your values. She talks about embracing mistakes as learning opportunities and how leading authentically has empowered her to build strong, supportive teams. For Alex, leading with empathy and fostering an environment of open communication has been key to her success—a reminder that great leaders make a point to uplift others as they climb.
These insights align perfectly with our upcoming event, "How to Be a Badass Boss," where we’ll explore practical strategies to become a strong, effective leader in tech. This session is designed to help you tap into your potential, build confidence, and lead with purpose. Whether you’re already managing a team or aiming to step into a leadership role, this event offers the tools to help you thrive.
Taking inspiration from leaders like Alex, we’re excited to provide a space for members to grow, connect, and redefine leadership in tech. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn how to communicate confidently, empower your team, and lead with empathy. Join us for "How to Be a Badass Boss" and be inspired by the insights of leaders like Alex Swift—because leadership isn’t just about where you’re going, but about bringing others along with you.

Meet your own personal AI Agent, for everything…Proxy
Imagine if you had a digital clone to do your tasks for you. Well, meet Proxy…
Last week, Convergence, the London based AI start-up revealed Proxy to the world, the first general AI Agent.
Users are asking things like “Book my trip to Paris and find a restaurant suitable for an interview” or “Order a grocery delivery for me with a custom weekly meal plan”.
You can train it how you choose, so all Proxy’s are different, and personalised to how you teach it. The more you teach it, the more it learns about your personal work flows and begins to automate them.
