A Note from the Editor

“Five years ago, I doubt anyone would say anything if there was an event where there were 12 speakers and they were all men. Now that’s not okay.”

 

Last week Louise, Katrina Collier and Audra Knight ran an episode of The #SocialRecruiting Show titled at "Why Women Don't Talk Enough" looking at why there aren't enough women speakers at events and conferences. You can watch the replay here.  After the show a Facebook community was launched; a forum of global Recruitment/HR speakers from veterans to the people just preparing to jump in. The goal is to encourage diversity in event line up, celebrate successes, and encourage new speakers to get their start.  Everyone is welcome to join.
