Speaking Engagements for AAPI ERG Leaders

Requirement

Francoise wanted to connect with AAPI (Asian American and Pacific Islander) ERG leaders in corporations to offer herself as a guest speaker for their upcoming events. The goal was to introduce her signature talk, “Busting Myths Around Parenting an Outlier,” and inspire conversations about parenting neurodiverse children within Asian American communities — especially where cultural stigma is still strong.
