Are you ready to start your speaking and training journey? Are you looking for tips on figuring out what to say and how to find opportunities to say it? Hear from women who went through THRIVEx, the speaker incubator program developed by ASA to encourage women to become industry presenters, during the ASA webinar “Getting Comfortable Being Uncomfortable Webinar Series, Part One: Developing a Path to Speaking Opportunities.” The first session in a four-part webinar series focused on empowering women to volunteer for speaking opportunities in the industry, which is presented by the ASA women in leadership interest group, takes place Tuesday, May 21, 2–3 p.m. Eastern time.

All ASA webinars are free for ASA members, and most qualify for continuing education hours toward ASA certification renewal. To learn more and to register, visit americanstaffing.net.
