The Eloquent Woman's weekly speaker toolkit

Fans of The Eloquent Woman on Facebook see links to good reads, resources and ideas from other sources there, in addition to posts from the blog. But you won't miss a thing, since I'm summarizing that extra content and putting it here on the blog for all readers to see. Here's what I shared in the week just past:

• The Hardest Speech is a deep look at women who enter the abortion debate--from all sides--by talking about their own abortions. 
• #NextTimeRememberHer was the hashtag a group of Muslim women used to call out the men who "forgot" to put women on the program.
• Did you miss? Last week, our Famous Speech Friday featured a guest post from Kate Peters on Toni Morrison's 2011 commencement address at Rutgers University, and we looked at how using a script or transcript can help control your speaking speed.
• About the quote: Wise words from Emma Watson. Invite a male ally to join!

Got a panel coming up? Whether you're a conference organizer, speaker, or moderator, you'll have a better panel--and a sparkling discussion--if you plan with The Eloquent Woman's Guide to Moderating Panels. At just $3.99 in all ebook formats, it's like having a coach with whom you can prepare and bring on stage with you.
