Team culture determines your power of innovation. This session will help leaders examine how power and influence work on technical teams: who gets heard, who shapes decisions, and whether the patterns you see are actually producing your best thinking. Attendees will also learn practical ways to use PowerTilt — a free, research-based assessment tool from NCWIT — to ensure that you and your technical teams are not unwittingly leaving some of the best ideas on the table.

About Elevate Quantum
Quantum technologies will be as important to the next century as semiconductors were to the last, and Colorado, New Mexico, and Wyoming are leading the way to build them. Since 2000, Colorado’s scientists alone have earned four Nobel Prizes for groundbreaking work on quantum science and the region is home to more quantum organizations, companies and jobs than anywhere else in the country.
Elevate Quantum is a Designated TechHub by the U.S. Department of Commerce Economic Development Administration and boasts the largest regional consortium in America. The consortium of 120 organizations works to ensure that the region remains the global epicenter for Quantum by helping turn cutting-edge research into world-changing companies, facilitating a vibrant startup and scale-up ecosystem and building a strong workforce.
Elevate Quantum’s mission is simple: Dramatically accelerate the pace of commercialization in quantum.
