Speaking
Dr. Madsen speaks and facilitates programs/gatherings within her own state, the US, and beyond. As a full-time professor and scholar, as well as directing initiatives and serving on boards, her schedule fills up quickly with commitments. However, she loves to inform, inspire, and ignite girls and women—and those creating programs or structures that will positively influence them—so she carefully considers all requests (paid and pro bono).
Hundreds of speaking engagements include organizations like eBay, The New York Times, Zions Bancorporation, Digicert, Adobe, House of Commons, USAID, U.S. State Department, American Council on Education, American Association of State Colleges and Universities, Lithuania President’s Palace, Myriad Genetics, University of Utah Medical School, Clemson University, University of Minnesota, Argentina Parliament Palace, L3Harris, Younique, SolutionReach, and hundreds of others.
