Should men be allowed to attend Women in Digital events? Nope. Unless they are voted in and here’s why we take this controversial stance. Hear us out and leave your comments to tell us what you think. Update: We have issued 36 tickets for men to our Annual Conference in October. This reflects 4% of the seats, also the number of Women CEOs at Fortune 500 companies. We feel this is a fair compromise. However, men are still prohibited from attending our quarterly meetings. Plus an interview with the former head of strategy and growth at Facebook’s Creative Shop: Debra Bednar. Throughout her career bridging Silicon Valley and Madison Avenue, Debra became known for building exceptionally high-performing businesses and teams for the world’s most notable companies during their most pivotal years. As a female leader in tech with a passion for fashion, Debra doubted whether she could unite her skills with her passions until she realized a hidden secret: your whole self is your best self. When Debra realized that the majority of the women she managed and coached weren’t leading with their strengths and that organizations weren’t fully optimizing what made each individual unique, she founded DB+co to show them how.
