What women are saying…

Highlights of the 2015 SSL Conference

“Last Year was my second time as Emcee for the Suits, Stilettos and Lipstick conference and I was absolutely blown away by all of the phenomenal women in one room. I walked away inspired, exhilarated an enlightened. Not to mention, having made some new life-long friends. This event is one not to be missed!”

Keynote Speakers

International Women’s Leadership Honorees and “The Shoe” Panelists

Our honorees will take the stage and share their challenges and triumphs on “The Shoe”, our very upbeat and fun “talk show”. It’s like you are sitting with them in your living room having girl talk.  Of course, that means that you never know what secrets they will share.  

 

Breakout Out Speakers

Men in the Hot Seat

This panel is an open and honest dialogue about topics SASSY(smart, assertive, strategic, selfless and young-at-heart) women want to know from a male perspective.  Questions are selected from a pool of questions submitted by the attendees prior to the conference.  Topics discussed are professional and personal in nature. The panel discussion is meant to be educational, insightful and fun.  Feel free to submit your questions to our panel moderator, Yvonne Haase at YvonneH@SSLwomen.com.  No question is off limit.
