Their speaker is Dana Rubin, an internationally known women's advocate and leadership communicator. She will focus on women’s speech, their ambitions, and the impact they made - drawing on speeches from the online Speaking While Female Speech Bank. She will feature speeches by Sojourner Truth, Amelia Earhart, Lorraine Hansberry and Meredith Vieira. And she will also discuss speaking opportunities for women and give tips and strategies on how you can make your voice heard.
