About Us
Who We Are
The Aspiring Women Speakers is a small, free to join community of women in the tech industry on a similar path to improving their public speaking skills. We have a Slack group (including experienced mentors) and a mailing list.
Our members are typically developers, tech leads, engineering managers and CTOs who would like to build their presentation skills with a view to doing more internal or conference talks.
The group was founded by RecWorks and early events were largely related to the more established London Java Community, but we rapidly built our own brand in the industry.
What we can offer
The Aspiring Women Speakers community was founded in 2019 and has over 300 members.
We have a Slack channel, webinars and workshops on how to create and deliver a presentation and how to take the next steps on your journey, a safe space in which to practice your speaking and presenting skills, and access to a mentor matching service where we can put you in touch with more experienced speakers who can guide and support you.
