Title: Why we don't ask for help? (and why that's a problem)

Synopsis: In this workshop we will look at the barriers that stop us from asking for help so we can reach our potential in starting or scaling our enterprises and our careers.

If you haven't been taught how to ask for help, you don't do it. Asking for help is a skill you have to practice. It takes practice and discipline to learn how to ask for it and then even more practice on accepting the feedback you get.

We'll also address how we create safer spaces for people to ask for help.
