The Prestigious Speakers Club is a Toastmasters International club based in Barcelona, Spain, that meets in English on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of the month. The club focuses on high-level communication skills, aligning with the Toastmasters goal of fostering professional speaking and leadership development in an open, encouraging environment.

Let's meet on Sant Jordi's day (the most beautiful day in Barcelona) to channel this energy into our most productive work. This is an invitation to stop postponing important work for urgent work. Let's meet for a focused half-day session where we work ON our businesses, not just IN them. **What this is:** A strategic coworking experience designed to help you gain clarity, make important decisions, and execute one high-value action that moves your business forward. We won't be checking emails or working on admin tasks, we'll be doing CEO-level work that we keep putting off. **What we'll do:** * Opening circle for intention setting and goal sharing * Identify your ONE high-value action that's been on hold * Deep focused work blocks with accountability check-ins * Closing commitment ritual **What you'll leave with:** A high-value business action COMPLETED, clarity on your strategic priorities, and the momentum that comes from accomplishing important work alongside other driven women. **Bring:** Your laptop, charger, and a journal if you'd like. You can buy drinks and snacks at the venue. **Important:** *Only 15 spaces available*. Book ONLY if you're 100% certain you can attend. Last-minute cancellations take away someone else's opportunity to make real progress on their business. This session depends on the full commitment and energy of every person in the group. **🌟 Bonus:** The day before, you'll receive some journaling prompts to prepare your mind for clarity and focus. See you on Thursday!

In this session, we’ll explore one of the most important and overlooked leadership skills: how to tackle difficult conversations in a way that builds trust, drives growth and sets the standard for the people around you. Too often, conflict is treated as a one-off conversation or a management tool reserved for performance issues. But in reality, the way a leader handles conflict shapes culture. It teaches people what honesty sounds like, what care looks like and whether growth feels safe. Together, we’ll explore four common ways people experience challenging conversations in the workplace. We’ll unpack how each one affects confidence, motivation, trust, and performance and what leaders can do differently to communicate with more intention and impact. This will be a practical, interactive session designed for professionals, founders, managers, team leads, and anyone who wants to communicate more effectively and lead by example. **During the session we’ll cover:** * Why leadership is better understood as an infinite game rather than a short-term win. * The four methods people often use to handle difficult conversations: compassionate clarity, brutal clarity, empty critique, and empty negativity. * How different approaches affect trust, confidence, motivation, and action. * Why vague kindness can be just as unhelpful as harsh criticism. **About the Speaker** Saba Shakir is a Leadership Communication and a Learning & Development specialist who designs practical training to improve speaking, interpersonal skills and leadership confidence. She is also President of Women4Space, promoting inclusion and opportunities in the space sector. With a Masters in Linguistics and degree in Social Psychology, she focuses on helping professionals communicate clearly and lead effectively. Her research on building an inclusive space workforce will be presented at IAC Antalya 2026. **Agenda** * Doors open: 7.00pm * Session starts: 7.15pm * Interactive activities and discussion: 7.30pm * Q&A / group reflection: 7.45pm * Networking: 8.00pm **About Let’s Speak Business** Join Let’s Speak Business, where ambitious people come together to strengthen the communication and leadership skills that shape real career growth. Each session explores practical, workplace-focused themes across communication, leadership, confidence, and professional development - designed to help you speak with greater clarity, navigate challenges more effectively, and build the presence needed to contribute with authority and lead with impact. Expect interactive sessions, practical discussion, and a community of like-minded people who want to grow in confidence, capability, and business acumen.

A WiA Collective Wisdom Exchange At the start of this year, we gathered to look back, set intentions, and imagine the next chapter. This is the follow-up. Not a check-in. Not a progress report. A small, facilitated circle to reconnect with what you said mattered — and honestly explore what’s actually happening now. Together, we’ll explore: • What you intended at the start of this year - and what that looks like three months in • What’s surprised you, supported you, or shifted • What the next chapter needs now that you know what you know If you were at our January gathering, bring whatever you made or wrote — your word, your artifact, your intention. We’ll look at it with fresh eyes. If this is your first time, you belong here too. You’ll start where we all started: with what’s true right now. Optional art materials will be available for anyone who wants to reflect creatively alongside conversation. If you brought something home from January, you’re warmly invited to bring it back. The intention is the same as always: everyone leaves feeling more clear, more connected, and a little lighter. Space is intentionally limited to keep the experience intimate. What to Expect • A small, welcoming circle (not a large meetup) • Structured conversation so everyone has space to speak • Reflection, listening, and lived experience — not advice-giving • Optional creative reflection alongside conversation • A calm, supportive environment Who This Is For Women and underrepresented folks working in or around agile, product, technology, leadership, or organizational change — especially those looking for honest conversation and community beyond frameworks and buzzwords. Good to Know • No preparation required • If you attended in January, we invite you to bring anything you created or wrote (or something that represents your intention at the start of the year) - it’s optional but invited • Participation is invitational; listening is always welcome • Creative activities are optional
