Through real-life experiences and practical reflections, Ms. Parveen shed light on how individuals can harness their technical skills to contribute meaningfully to society, uplift communities, and foster inclusive growth.
Key aspects acknowledged during the session included the importance of empathy in leadership, the ethical responsibility of technologists, and the value of volunteerism in personal and professional development.
