Testimonials

"The WITI Annual Summit presented an outstanding opportunity to learn about social networking in a very personal hands-on approach, providing tangible application of the topics presented in each session. There were great networking opportunities and I met so many wonderful people!" Greta Huang, Sr. Engineer, Intel

"Over the years I have attended countless conferences and I found the WITI20 Summit to be the best by far. I have never experienced the level of involvement and commitment that I experienced here with WITI20. I applaud the entire group... hosts, speakers and attendees for making this a very memorable, meaningful event!" Tim Thompson, Vice President, SMCI

"I have been involved with WITI since the mid-90's. I have participated in many of the conferences and events, and have been joined by many of the women I've worked with. Our participation led to multiple opportunities to build relationships with existing and potential clients, and also served as an excellent platform for recruiting. Furthermore, the general networking and experience sharing has been invaluable in developing new insights and opening up new doors - both personally and professionally!" Christy Jones, Founder & CEO, Extend Fertility

"While I am just becoming acquainted with WITI, I wish I had known of it 15 years ago as I was building my career. It's a great support organization that I'm proud to be associated with now." Colleen Edwards, VP of Marketing, Foundstone

"I have been with WITI since the very 1st meeting at Sun Microsystems. I have watched it grow in numbers and impact both nationally and internationally. I always meet fantastic women at WITI events!" Rayona Sharpnack, Founder & President, Institute for Women's Leadership

"WITI's 2003 National Conference blew me away. I was surprised at the level of professionalism and the caliber of speakers. I met women from different walks of life, from different countries in the world. The sessions and seminars were powerful and provided a wealth of knowledge. The speakers actually shared their experiences and knowledge! I had a wonderful time at this very enriching and rewarding event. I knew then I had found an organization to be part of." Chioma A. Ndubuisi, Project Manager, Option One Mortgage

"We were so inspired by the panel that we're replicating internally with our Women's professional network affinity group." Paul Rogers, Director of Employee Engagement, Applied Materials

"WITI has provided me with a myriad of positive experiences. I am so thankful that I got involved with this organization several years ago. My fondest experience was several years ago in Santa Clara, when I was speaking to a roundtable of "women of color". We were sharing some preliminary thoughts and introducing ourselves, when this "loud" and colorful lady came in the room and interrupted our session. She said she didn't think a roundtable should be conducted with women sitting in chairs in a classroom arrangement. I was new to WITI, so I invited her to help us arrange the room in a manner she felt would be more comfortable. After we had made a big circle so we could see each other and read each other's expressions, she introduced herself as Carolyn Leighton Tal, the founder of WITI. Carolyn can always be found around the conference, lending a hand and showing others how to network and make the most of every experience that WITI has to offer." Birdie Sadberry, Consulting Systems Engineer in Technology Services, Burlington Northern & Santa Fe Railway

"The WITI Conference have been an inspirational, educational and motivating event that I look forward to every year. I get valuable professional advice, and I enjoy the warm and welcoming environment this special event brings to women. It's a wonderful opportunity to network with many diversified, successful women, and it's awesome to see them recognized." Rita Chow, IBM Global Services Project Manager at IBM Corp

"Attending my first WITI Conference in Santa Clara in 1997 inspired me to take an active role in mentoring girls and women in careers in technology. Since the conference, I have co-founded a woman's network at Raytheon Fullerton, Winning Opportunities for Women, and have sponsored Introduce a Girl to Engineering Days at the site. I not only enjoy mentoring but believe it is my responsibility to help encourage and guide girls and other women on their journey." Hope Miller, California Director of Engineering, Network Centric Systems, Raytheon Corporation

"I was fortunate enough to attend one of the conferences this year in San Jose and I tell you it was so wonderful. What was invaluable to me is getting charged up. I was getting tired and feeling overwhelmed and then all these dynamic women walking around. It put me right back on track. Thank you WITI!" Angela Joe

"Not only did my employees return to work from WITI's conference energized, enthusiastic and expectant that their careers have real growth potential, but I found unexpected value in meeting women professionals from across the country and - specifically in our company - who are making a real and positive difference." Dr. Lynne C. Bracker, National award recipient and Manager, Systems Engineering, Raytheon Missile Systems

"I am thrilled with my WITI experience, and will definitely attend WITI conferences in the future. I learned a great deal, I met some awesome women involved in a variety of activities and careers, and I enjoyed virtually all of the presentations and opportunities to network. I cannot recommend the WITI Summit experience highly enough. In these challenging economic times, I can assure those companies who employ women in their IT organizations that sponsoring as many as possible will be an excellent investment!!" WITI Summit Attendee

"The WITI conference explored relevant technologies and structured the conference in a way that the attendees could experience those technologies throughout the conference. It was truly a unique conference experience. As a result, I not only remember much of key aspects of the sessions but I can also communicate those "take-aways" to my friends, colleagues and management for applicable purposes." WITI Summit Attendee

"Attending the conference was a truly wonderful experience. The networking opportunities were excellent and the line-up of speakers was top notch. Any woman who works in technology (or any man, for that matter) should absolutely attend next year's conference. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming. The "no one stands alone policy" gives the whole conference a warmer, more comfortable feel than any other conference I've attended." WITI Summit Attendee

"This was the first time I attended the WITI conference. I loved it. It was truly amazing to listen to the woman that were honored this year. I would recommend this to any woman that has never attended. I hope to attend again next year." WITI Summit Attendee

"The WITI Summit was one of the most energetic and welcoming events I've participated in in a long time. Carolyn's mantra that "no one stands alone" is embedded in how the members engage and include each other. It was energizing and thought-provoking. Thank you!!!" WITI Summit Attendee

"Without a doubt, the most powerful aspect of this summit is meeting so many accomplished and amazing women, not only in other companies, but even within my own!" WITI Summit Attendee

"Truly enjoyed meeting positive, helpful, supportive and intelligent technical women in a great environment. I cannot wait until next year. Hope to see many of the same great people next year." WITI Summit Attendee

"Really top notch speakers and attendees. I met some really smart, vibrant women who are doing amazing work. Most of what I heard at the conference was instantly relevant to me in my job. Having Dr. Ruth as a speaker was absolutely brilliant! Kudos to whoever came up with that idea and carried through. This was a great conference! Thank you so much." WITI Summit Attendee

"I LOVE WITI!" WITI Summit Attendee
