CALL FOR SPEAKERS

Thank you for your interest and your commitment to advancing the needs of women and LGBTQ+ leaders!

The Women’s Leadership Connection of Southern Oregon is currently seeking keynote speakers, panelists, and breakout session speakers for our 2025 conference, which will occur in Ashland, Oregon on May 1-2. Based on past conferences, we expect 350+ attendees. 

Our 2025 theme will be LEVEL UP.  We are particularly seeking speakers who can help our audience develop a clear path to making concrete changes in their personal and professional lives that will take them to the next level, however they define that.  

Keynote speakers will be paid a modest honorarium; however, all other speaker roles are volunteer roles and are uncompensated. 

Interested speakers should fill out the application below, including providing a 2-3 minute video about their presentation (including speaker name, topic, learning points, and why the speaker is qualified to present on the chosen topic). The application questions can be previewed by downloading the document below. 

The application deadline is December 1, 2024 and all applicants will be notified of their status by early January.
