Lauren Beane

Home Lauren Beane
Lauren’s Talk “Raise Your Hand If You Don’t Feel Ready” explores an important leadership skill: risk. Do we ever feel 100% ready to pursue our goals?
As of June 2021, only 8.1% of Fortune 500 companies have a female sitting in the CEO position. Studies show that women are more likely to wait until they feel they have 100% of the qualifications before they advocate for those top leadership positions. But what if women pursued opportunities before they felt 100% ready? What if they chased after a dream role, even with 50% of the qualifications? The more we jump at opportunities before we feel ready enough, the easier it will become to thrive outside our comfort zone. The more we exercise our readiness muscle, the more women we will see changing our corporate narrative and sitting in the C-Suite.
 
About Lauren
Lauren Beane helps audiences take the leap and believe they are ready enough by offering tools, coaching, and her personal stories so they can embrace and own their unique talents. Too often, she would not take action on her goals unless she felt that she had all the answers. But in 2020, Lauren grew tired of waiting until she felt ready to pursue new opportunities. After taking a huge leap and launching the consulting business of her dreams, she is now on a mission to empower others to feel they are ready enough (even with only 50% of the answers) and live out the life they deserve.

What is TEDx?

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED has created a program called TEDx. TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. Our event is called TEDxNormal, where x = independently organized TED event. At our TEDxNormal event, TEDTalks video and live speakers will combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events, including ours, are self-organized.
