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

  1. 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
  2. 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.)
