Although we call our presenters guest speakers we think of them more as entertainers, albeit with a relevance to busy businesswomen. Each dinner meeting we plan to offer our members a topic that is both inspirational and thought provoking.
We know that our members and guests have had a long day at work and that our meetings are in the middle of the week. We aim for our dinner meetings to be uplifting and light hearted. Don't worry, our speakers are not here to promote their business or to try and sell you something, that's what the two-minute segments are for.
Want to be a guest speaker? We want our guest speakers to motivate our members and inspire them to make changes in their workplace and lives. Topics covered can be broad, but should tie in to the following guidelines:

Business/career guidance. Ideas for doing business smarter in the 21st century. This should not be confused with a workshop, nor with promoting a business.

Creative pursuits such as Art/drawing or poetry composition. Ideally this should be interactive.

Well-being/Self help that offers useful tools connected with living a busy business life with many demands. Examples could be guided meditations, laughter therapy, etc

Interpersonal skills to help with relationships in the workplace.
To submit an expression of interest please, email Leslie Ring with an outline of your topic. All submissions will go before the Executive Committee for approval.
