In the spirit of Women's History Month, I thought you may be interested in some of the extraordinary women we represent. Please call me for availability for these speakers and more.  

Her warmth and her candor, about her experiences both on the campaign trail and on her medical journey, have endeared Elizabeth Edwards to many of our clients: “Mrs. Edwards was wonderful. The audience really appreciated her honesty and she did a great job tying in her experience to the theme of the conference.” (IIR New York) Mrs. Edwards’ book, Saving Graces: Finding Solace and Strength from Friends and Strangers, has served as an inspiration to women across the country.

“We thoroughly enjoyed having Cokie Roberts!” Our client sold over 1,400 tickets for her two speeches on February 2nd and was extremely impressed: “Our two audiences were amused and entertained by your 'inside dope' on the political campaigns for President. You gave them just what they wanted to hear, and you delivered it with wit and your customary wisdom.”(Emerson Center-Celebrated Speakers Series) Watch for Ms. Roberts on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, Good Morning America, and Charlie Rose in April, when her new book Ladies of Liberty: The Women Who Shaped Our Nation hits the shelves.

 

Nobel Laureate Wangari Maathai will be touring the U.S. during April and May. Don’t miss this limited opportunity to tie-in and bring her uplifting message to your organization! “Your talk was all we had hoped it would be – topical, interesting, engaging, and, most of all, inspiring. You have a wonderful story to tell, and it was clear that everyone was moved by your words. You clearly struck a chord with them.”(Accenture)

Much in demand for her astute commentary on the high stakes of Election 2008, Karen Hughes appeared on NBC News Decision ‘08 (video) on Feb. 5th and on Fox News' Election Headquarters last night (video). Audiences nationwide have raved about Mrs. Hughes’ humor, candor, and fascinating personal anecdotes: “Your presentation was the highlight of the convention! I'm sure it won't come as any surprise that you received an audience rating of 4.0 (out of 4.0), the highest of any session. Your insights and observations about the President, world events, politics, and leadership will remain with all of us for years to come.” (California Grocers Association)

Between her speaking tour, discussing the Election tonight on Larry King Live (9 pm on CNN) and her new book, Why Women Should Rule the World, being excerpted in this month’s Oprah magazine, Dee Dee Myers is everywhere! We just received a glowing review from her latest event at Yahoo! Inc: “Everyone loved her; she was fabulous and so inspiring, they were all saying they wish she would have had more time to spend. She truly was amazing.”

 

 

Discussing the war in Iraq, how it started and how it‘s going, Torie Clarke made a recent appearance on Hardball with Chris Matthews. Always “timely, insightful, passionate, educational and entertaining all in one program,” (Sinai Forum) we consistently hear what a consummate speaker Ms. Clarke is from our clients: “Her remarks were on target, current, and she injected humor which our group always appreciates. In addition, she was so generous with her time both before and after the event.” (Capital Tiger Bay Club)

 

At her new appointment as Director of the Moral Courage Project at New York University, Irshad Manji is striving to develop young leaders who will challenge conformity and champion creativity. She has also been empowering and energizing audiences to great acclaim: “Our audiences demand a lot - courage, passion, integrity, intelligence, curiosity, humor, empathy, candor and celebrity. Irshad over-delivered on all scores. And she's got some of the funniest zingers I've ever heard. Irshad proves you can have a mind, a spine, and tons of fun.” (SMART TALK Women's Lecture Series)
