Share Your Chapter: Speaker Nominations Opening Soon

The Women's Alliance Network (WAN) is seeking engaging speakers for our 2027 conference, Next Level You: Authoring Your Own Story. We invite nominations of individuals whose stories, experiences, and expertise can inspire others to reflect, grow, and intentionally write the next chapter of their personal and professional journeys.

Whether you're nominating yourself or someone else, we're looking for speakers who can educate, challenge, and empower attendees through authentic storytelling, practical strategies, and meaningful conversation.

Presentations should align with one or more of this year's conference chapters:

📖 Chapter 1: Rewriting the Narrative

Help attendees challenge limiting beliefs, overcome imposter syndrome, reframe setbacks, and let go of identities or stories that no longer serve them.

🎙️ Chapter 2: Owning Your Voice

Explore self-advocacy, confidence, courageous conversations, authentic leadership, communication, and finding the confidence to speak up and be heard.

🔀 Chapter 3: Plot Twists & Pivots

Share lessons from career transitions, unexpected challenges, personal reinvention, resilience, or the moments that changed your path.

🤝 Chapter 4: The Characters Who Shape Our Story

Highlight the impact of mentors, sponsors, colleagues, allies, teams, and communities. Explore the relationships that influence our journeys and how we can help shape the stories of others.

✍️ Chapter 5: Designing the Next Chapter

Inspire attendees to intentionally create what's next by sharing insights on goal setting, purpose, strategic career planning, boundaries, work-life integration, defining success, or building a meaningful legacy.

Speakers may be considered for a variety of session formats, including keynote presentations, panel discussions, workshops, and educational breakout sessions.
