Speaker + Writer + Networking Strategist + Coach
CurrentI am the author of Build Your Dream Network: Forging Powerful Relationships In A Hyper-Connected World (Penguin Random House) - and I'm working on my second book (which focuses on the unique networks women need for career success). I've been lauded from Forbes (“1 of 5 Women Changing the World of VC/Entrepreneurship”) to Fast Company (“1 of the 25 Smartest Women On Twitter”) to Business Insider (“1 of the 100 Most Influential Tech Women On Twitter”) and Inc. (1 of “10 Most Well-Connected People in New York City's Startup Scene”). Empowering A Billion Women By 2020 included her on their list of the “100 Most Influential Global Leaders Empowering Women Worldwide”. Not bad for a former corporate lawyer. I have had a byline in The New York Times and contributed to Inc.com, Forbes.com, Fast Company and GO Banking Rates #SmartMoneySquad. From the European Commission to the Conferences For Women (PA, TX, MA) to events and collaborations with organizations such as Capital One, Comcast and the PGA, I have been sought out as a speaker for my insights on networking. I am an experienced moderator and interviewer, having guided conversations for Apple's Meet The Innovators speaker series and for the inaugural season of the female entrepreneur focused podcast BroadMic (amongst others). https://jkellyhoey.co/speaking/
