Keynote Speaker:

Kirsten Anderson

 

“Kirsten Anderson is a passionate communicator who began her professional career with a degree in broadcast journalism from Northwest Missouri State University. She found herself an unlikely advocate for others after experiencing sexual harassment, retaliation, and wrongful termination in her role of Communications Director at the Iowa Statehouse. She took her former employer to court and won. 

Since then, Anderson has made it her mission to help other targets of harassment, support those who love them, and educate bystanders. She founded Equitas Solutions, a consultancy to help business build better, safer workplaces, and wrote More Than Words: Turn #MeToo into #ISaidSomething, a book empowering change in individuals, groups, and work environments. 

Anderson was 2018 Metro Woman of the Year and a finalist for Inspiring Woman of Iowa.”
