A self-proclaimed failed politician, Saujani surged into the political scene as the first Indian American women to run for U.S. Congress. However, it is because of what she learned from her failure that she has been able to build a national movement that is changing the conversation about women and technology. She advocates for a new model of female leadership focused on risk-taking, competition, and mentorship. 鈥淪uccess is the product of bravery, not perfection,鈥� Saujani says. 鈥淔ail first, fail hard, and fail fast.鈥�
While recounting her own personal narrative and lessons learned, Saujani will weave into her presentation stories of other accomplished women who have overcome roadblocks and forged new paths鈥攚omen who have similarly learned to live an authentic life by taking risks and choosing to seek failure rather than fear it.
