WW Speaker Series Guidelines

The Women Wednesdays Speaker Series offers a venue for participants to share and grow, both through presenting and listening to others in a variety of provided formats related to their entrepreneurial efforts or passions. Such must be conducted in a non-divisive manner that is supportive and respectful of all Women Wednesday stakeholders. Please understand we have a strict “no-sales zone.” We ask presenters to model their talk in a manner to bring benefit to listeners, while remaining free of any efforts at attaining votes, changing other’s personal beliefs or views, or attempting to make sales or other fundraising. A place will be available for sharing business cards or pamphlets for participants to acquire at their own choosing. Any relationships that develop and lead to sales or unrelated efforts outside of the Women Wednesdays environment is completely acceptable.
