This book of personal success stories is written by the women who entered and won the Australian Executive Women’s Network - Public Speaking Competitions since 1988.

They say one of the most terrifying experiences is to speak publicly for the first time. It’s for this reason that the AEWN created its Speaking Awards, to encourage women to talk about their careers, businesses or their hobbies.

We have learnt so much from the women who shared their lives with us on our monthly stages, being interviewed on our radio programs and submitting their stories for The Net Result books.

I’ll never forget the AEWN member in Melbourne who arrived wearing her black leather jacket, skin tight black leather pants and black Harley helmet. She was riding her own Harley motor cycle that day and wore her bikie gear on stage to compete in the speaking competition.

Her sons loved to ride, so she bought herself a bike so she could share in their love of motor sports. At each monthly luncheon we invite three members to share their own stories on stage. Being a competition one is voted the winner on the day and this woman competes in a State Competition and the State Winner competes in the annual competition held during the AEWN Conference.

Of course the Harley story was the Winner at that Melbourne luncheon, her story was so entertaining and unique.

We have included some tips on “How to Become a Professional Speaker” in this book to help you discover the exciting world of the speaker who is paid to share their stories and experiences on stage.
