About #IAmRemarkable
#IAmRemarkable is a global movement, reaching 550,000+ participants and fuelled by over 3,000 facilitators across 180 countries. We exist to empower everyone, including underrepresented groups, to celebrate their achievements in the workplace and beyond, while challenging the social perception around self-promotion. At the heart of our movement is a 90 minute workshop open to everyone, hosted by global facilitators. #IAmRemarkable, created at Google in 2016 under the leadership of Anna Vainer, has evolved into a program currently overseen by Rmrkblty, a non-profit organization founded by Anna Vainer.
