WHY WOMEN WON’T SUBMIT…

…TO SPEAK AT YOUR EVENT

WHY?WHY DON’T WE HAVE MORE FEMALE SPEAKERS?

WE DON’T HAVE FEMALE SPEAKERS BECAUSE WOMEN DON’T GET SELECTED

WHY DON’T THEY GET SELECTEDBECAUSE THEY DON’T APPLY

WHY DON’T THEY APPLY?…..LET ME HAVE 5 MINUTES OF YOUR TIME….

IS THIS A PROBLEM?

…SOMETIMES….
