WIB Networking Speakers
WIB Networking's mission is to connect like-minded women in business to
personal and professional resources. WIB Networking maintains its
quality speakers by using the following speaker selection process:
Speaker Selection Process
- Speaker name is submitted to the Board for review and approval
- The WIB Networking luncheons are primarily for quality and practical
advice for business owners, and is not just a sales opportunity for the
speaker.
- The speaker must be a WIB Networking member or recommended by a
member who has observed the speaker
- The speech content must be relevant and appropriate for WIB
Networking's audience
- The speaker must have some history of speaking for
organizations/companies
- WIB Networking is a non-profit organization and the speaker must be
willing to speak at no-charge
- The WIB Networking's President will follow up with the selected
speaker and schedule an appropriate month based on WIB Networking's topic
schedule (inspirational business success, practical how-to's in sales,
marketing, finance, customer service, etc.)
