Marie R. Pistilli Women in EDA Achievement Award Presentation Panelist Presentations:
- "Leadership with Authenticity"; Carol Hallett, VP Sales, Real Intent, Sunnyvale CA. In a business world primarily dominated by men, how can a woman bring her authentic self in a leadership position to be effective?
- "Your Mentor: The Competitive Advantage For Your Career”; Gilda Garreton, Principal Engineer, SunLabs/Oracle, Redwood Shores, CA. Ever wonder about the value of having someone outside of your organization for independent advice? Mentoring is a leadership development tool; the key is how to use it.
- "Money Talk: Pay, Compensation and Value"; Kathryn Kranen, CEO, Jasper Design Automation, Mountain View, CA. Diligence is not enough! Too many people are smart, busy and dedicated but the results, the value to their company is not there...or is not observable.
