In this episode, Moran Weber interviewed Nur Lee Harel, Chief Awesomeness Officer @ EventHandler and a personal branding expert for R&D people.
Even if youâre currently employed, having a strong personal brand is very important as it can get you a better job or better pay at the same job. In addition, you can also start monetizing your personal brand by acknowledging your own expertise and actually getting paid for speaking engagements.
In this episode, Nur shared how to start valuing yourself as an expert, and start getting paid for your hard-working earned knowledge after years in tech; How do you define your product and start selling it, and most importantly: how do you put a price tag for the first time and persist even when faced with a 'no' from potential clients, which are usually the hardest parts.
Nur emphasized the need to stop thinking about 'what they are willing to pay me' and start considering 'what I deserve to get paid'. In addition, It's much easier to make the jump from $100 to $1000 than to go from not asking at all to asking for $100. Nur shared her golden tips from 25 years of experience in the business world, in addition to being a Dev Communities Manager, a DevRel consultant, and an international tech conferences organizer and producer (such as JDevSummit IL, Leaders In Tech, React Next, Node TLV, and more).

A podcast by â Women on Stage,â recorded live with Moran Weber and Vicki Kalmanovich, an Engineering Manager and a renowned podcaster.
[SPOILER ALERT] In this episode, we discussed âthe backstage'' aspects of the new Barbie movie. We talked about why this movie is so important to Feminism, its take on impostor syndrome, and why intelligent and brilliant women just donât think theyâre enough, as we constantly witness as part of our work at Women on Stage (or like Ken is saying: âI am Kenough!â).
We reflected back on our own childhood memories and asserted how this movie brilliantly created the perfect commercial for Mattel by ârebrandingâ and admitting its old faults, and how other companies who wish to support diversity in the post #MeToo era can do the same. Lastly, we talked about how the movie could do better in the sense of male representation and wished it emphasized more on how the patriarchy can be harmful to men as well.
