How to Throw More Balls Up Higher: Juggling Work-Life Balance in Demanding Times

Silicon Valley women leaders are challenged by the corporate and business pressures of high-stress, high-impact positions, while still juggling the personal demands of life and family, and squeezing in time for yourself. Each ball, from the heavy, urgent demands in a corporate environment to the home-and-personal demands of children, spouses, friends and others, to your own always-addressed-last personal needs for balance, health and growth - is important.

Yet each balls keeps coming at you from more angles, and each ball is coming at you faster! So how do you juggle these often-competing balls and what we can do to adjust our own expectations and that of others on us, in order to ease the load and the stress? Our speakers will share their stories, commiserate with us, and challenge us to re-evaluate how roles, our priorities, and our own expectations for ourselves.

  • We track, document and report on business and technology trends so that we can better support the needs of our clients.
  • We produce events to convene and connect members of our community in order to stimulate conversations and knowledge about technology, business and leadership trends and build relationships and collaborations between stakeholders.
FountainBlue's When She Speaks was launched in May 2006 and provides ongoing networking and program benefits for 50-200 high tech women and men-who-support-having-women-in-leadership positions across Silicon Valley and beyond. Our monthly events are held on the second Fridays of the month, from 11:30 a.m. until 1:30 p.m. at high tech companies across the valley. Every month, we profile a panel of women senior executives in high tech companies speaking on a range of leadership challenges and issues for Silicon Valley high tech women in particular.

Tech companies across the Silicon Valley have leveraged FountainBlue’s When She Speaks, Women in Leadership series to profile their women leaders, to connect their staff with other professionals across and within companies, and to inform, inspire and educate their staff and partners. Our current and upcoming list of host companies include the marquis tech companies in the valley, who proudly advertise their commitment to developing women and leaders within their organizations. 

Our series is designed to celebrate women leaders in Silicon Valley, stimulate critical thinking and conversation around leadership challenges and issues, empower and inspire all participants, including the next generation of leaders, and build a proactive, collaborative and supportive leadership community overall.
