International Women’s Day Speakers

For businesses, International Women’s Day is an opportunity to educate and inspire. By booking one of our empowering female speakers, you will unlock the potential of your employees through insightful stories of strength and bravery, despite adversity.

A survey found that only 18% of enterprises had a female CEO, reflecting the need for inspiring female speakers to motivate businesswomen and educate their male colleagues. Diverse leadership can have a staggering impact on a business’ success, producing increased innovation and better decision-making.
