Transgender Speakers Bureau

Transgender at Work

Introduction

Usually there is a need to keep costs as low as possible.  Travel expenses can dramatically increase the total cost of the workshop.  We would like to have a network of local presenters in every location, so that a local workshop will always be available at a reasonable cost.  The Transgender Speakers Bureau has been established to help meet this need.

Our goal is to have at least one presenter available in every major metropolitan area in the United States.  (We will gladly list global presenters as well.)  Each presenter should be either

• a professional speaker or facilitator, who has been paid to give workshops and been invited back to repeat, or
• a volunteer or group of volunteers who is available to speak without charge.

1. Speakers.  This is an individual who gives speeches about transgender issues.  Usually a question/answer period from the audience is important.  Speakers who themselves are transgendered, or who are professionals working in the transgender field, or who have family members who are transgendered, are usually most effective.
2. Panel workshops.   This highly effective format includes a facilitator who gives introductory information, followed by a group of transgendered panelists.  The panelists give introductory information about themselves, and a question/answer period follows.
3. Individual workshops.  In this format, a single presenter, usually transgendered, conducts the workshop.
4. other formats.

We have been guest speakers for a variety of audiences including professional groups, corporations, governments, police and fire departments, media, schools and colleges and the general public. Our Diagram of Sex and Gender that we use as a teaching tool in our lectures is now on our website. Have a look!
