About this Event
If you’ve ever searched for a job, you know the journey can feel quite lonely. But it doesn’t have to be that way.
Phyl Terry is a friend and advisor to many. And they recently wrote to share the knowledge they've gathered from over 25 years of experience working with thousands of leaders—from early-career product managers to CEOs.
At this event, you'll have the opportunity to meet Phyl and the community of thousands of people they are building around this book. A community designed to help anyone tap into the power of asking for help.
With the recent bevy of tech layoffs, this book is a timely reminder to lean on the collective power of your community to land a job you’ll love.
Come join us for this event if you:
- Are currently looking for a job
- Are *happy* in your job, but have friends or colleagues who have been laid off and are asking for help
- Might look for a job in the future
- Want to show support for creating a free community that makes the job search easier and better
We'll also be celebrating 20 years since Phyl—in collaboration with Amazon, Google, and others—founded the Collaborative Gain community of leaders helping leaders.
Cocktails and light fare will be served, courtesy of your friends and hosts at DesignMap.
All event proceeds will be donated to Mission Food Hub, a non-profit organization serving San Francisco's Mission community. Mission Food Hub procures and distributes culturally-appropriate and nutritious food to ensure the well-being of families and individuals.
