From Self-Doubt to Thought Leader: Parna Bhattacharya’s Journey in API Advocacy - Women in APIs

Описание: In this inspiring episode of Women in APIs, Parna Bhattacharya—Field Engineering Leader at Databricks—shares her personal journey and insights on the power of public speaking in the API and tech spaces.

Three key takeaways from Parna’s testimonial:

1) Overcoming Self-Doubt: Parna talks candidly about the mental hurdles she faced before her first speaking engagements. Identifying her unique expertise and realizing the value of her insights, gave her courage to step forward. Parna urges others to do the same.

2) Building Your Support System: Sharing your ambitions with peers and leaders can create accountability and a network of encouragement. Parna credits her colleagues and leadership team for helping her stay on track and validating her progress.

3) Achieving Career Growth Through Visibility: Public speaking not only boosted Parna’s personal brand but opened doors to new opportunities (like transitioning from engineering to sales). Each step on stage made the next one easier—and more rewarding.
