Come have lunch with Montgomery Fellow Sylvie Delacroix

Sylvie Delacroix is a philosopher and legal theorist. Her work addresses the ethical, legal, and political dimensions of technology. She has published work on habit, an area of human life that she describes as "both nature and 'more than mere' nature." In addition to theorizing digital ethics, she has also contributed to policy work on trust and transparency in relation to governmental use of data and the use of algorithms in criminal justice. Her work has had important implications for thinking about human ethical agency in the face of rapidly growing data archives and automated systems.

As you work on your PhD, your post-education priorities may change. How can you rethink how you talk about your experiences so they are relevant to your new focus? What additional experiences should you gain? In this workshop, we will talk about techniques for re-positioning and explaining your work in the language expected. We will also discuss finding and addressing gaps in experience so that your work is relevant and captivating for the next step in your journey.

Often the most effective ways to communicate complexity are by using simple and clear language and relating concepts to commonplace or easily recognized representations. In this workshop, we will explore how to construct a 3-minute pitch by building the pitch and then simplifying it repeatedly until it is down to its most basic components.

You can use the methodology to create short expressions of your work for the recruiting elevator speeches and introductions of your work for all kinds of audiences.
