Slalom’s first CIDO talks about navigating tough conversations, fulfilling her purpose, and creating space for people to self-reflect and grow.

Inspiring action, producing results Far from the bleary-eyed all-nighters many hackathons endure, ours take teams on a multi-month journey of discovery, reflection, ideation, iteration and perfection. It’s a format that gives everyone space to bring their best thinking, encouraging us all to share expertise and ideas, fail fast and prove quickly, and unearth new ways to solve old problems. And by giving more teams more opportunities to participate, to dive into the technology and really understand it, our hackathons produce solutions that are often usable, and always inspiring.
