Bobbie Carlton Helps Women Founders Gain Visibility Through Public Speaking


Listen Later

"Every time we get on stage, we have the opportunity to tell our story and to really be seen for what we're doing and what we know."


As PR director for several enterprise software companies, part of Bobbie Carlton’s job is getting executives on stage at conferences and events. But after 20 years in the business, she was tired of supporting solely male executives and knew it was time for her to take matters into her own hands when supporting women in business. Today, Bobbie is the founder of Carlton PR & Marketing, Innovation Nights, and Innovation Women. She is an engaging speaker who passionately advocates for public speaking as a catalyst for career and business success. A TEDx speaker and startup event host, she has addressed audiences at the United Nations and major conferences worldwide. Tune in to hear Bobbie’s take on the lack of women in executive roles, how her platform helps women entrepreneurs increase visibility and credibility, and the criteria it takes to be considered for Innovation Women.



What we talk about:  

  • The over saturation of male conference speakers (02:10)
  • How Innovation Women connects speakers with audiences (06:33)
  • Navigating getting paid for public speaking (15:48)
  • Encouraging speakers who aren’t naturally outgoing (22:14)
