I came across a new website, geekspeakr.com, that helps event organizers find technical women to speak at their events. It has profiles of women in various professional fields with details that include location and language proficiencies. I loved the idea and hope to see more female speakers in technical events. We have many talented ladies in Kuwait and in the Gulf, it would be nice to swap speakers, host more events and share the knowledge.
I hope people make the best of this service and not abuse it for other purposes.
Title inspired from this photo:
What about the men?
Hi
I liked the title and how it came
lol
Actually it is very good idea and yes I believe there are so many lady’s that has the power to talk and do something to raise the future of the organisations
Thank you for the nice post
You’re amazing, I just checked your profile
legafa
Not to put myself down or anything, but I haven’t reached that level … yet … maybe after a couple of years ..
Just tell me when you’re presenting in an event, because I want to come
one more thing ;P
the title is absolutely 100% true …
It’s always assumed when women get together, all we do is gossip .. in truth we do but not all the time
We crave good company and intelligent conversations
@Ghaithe, men are the majority when it comes to public speakers. Women, on the other hand, are harder to find. I have not gone feminist, lol, not yet! I just think this is a great idea.
@Manal, yea, I loved the plate in the photo and it just works with this subject.
@BloggyLife, a7rajteeny! lol, I will definitely tell you! You never know, we might co-host an IT event in Kuwait.
Well Shay, not all are able to speak well in presentations! So I guess men do need that too
Beside, I’m glad that you ain’t feminist; you know well my attitude towards feminism!
@Ghiathe, presentation skills is a whole other issue – for men and women.
wow! loved the idea
