Ever worked somewhere that felt more like politics than teamwork? This talk is for professionals who’ve been punished for being too honest, too capable, or simply too observant. You’ll learn how to recognize dysfunctional power dynamics, decode unspoken cues in meetings, and protect your reputation without losing your integrity.</p> <p>Through humor, real-world examples, and “Snake Pit Bingo,” you’ll walk away with practical tools to read the room like a strategist, speak up without self-sabotage, and thrive even in ego-driven environments. Because you’re not paranoid — you’re perceptive.</p> <h2>Lightning Talks:</h2> <p>Lightning talks are talks up to 5 minutes in length on any topic that might interest other Python people. See PyCon’s Lightning Talks description for more details.</p> </div> <h3>Links</h3> <ul> <li><a class="url u-url" href="https://www.meetup.com/pdxpython/events/311918125/?utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=share-btn_savedevents_share_modal&utm_source=link&utm_version=v2">Website</a></li> </ul> </div>
