Partnership Brokering Workshop (Space limited, by invitation only)BaycliffAs change makers we know multi-stakeholder collaboration is essential if we are going to create a more inclusive world. But such collaborations can be highly challenging and often falls short of expectations. Partnership brokers are those who support and strengthen the partnerships by their understanding and skilled management of the collaboration process. Skilled brokering can make all the difference to the effectiveness of complex networks, non-traditional alliances and partnerships. In this session, you will have a condensed, fast-paced and interactive hands-on experience to learn the art and science behind brokering. This will provide you an introduction into partnership brokering and give you the tools and skills to better manage multi-stakeholder partnerships and be the change maker needed in NCWIT and the work we do to grow more women in computing.
