Now one of Silicon Valley’s top product design executives as Vice President of Product Design at Facebook, Zhuo started her career in tech as an intern at Facebook and became a rookie manager at 25. She felt lost and unprepared to succeed in this new role. Could she be a great manager with almost no prior managerial experience? What did being a manager exactly entail? Has they made a mistake in promoting her? As a first-generation American and minority female leader, Zhuo was excited about the idea of being a leader, but didn’t know where or how to being.

During this personal morning event with Julie, she will walk you through The Making of a Manager, which combines practical, action-based advice with the tools and confidence you need to lead a great team.

Acting as a field guide, you’ll receive valuable and practical tips:

Challenges of being a minority female manager in technology

Awkwardness of managing former peers

Delivering hard feedback

What to ask in an interview

Ability (and confidence) to make real-time decisions
