Becky Spieth is a leader in business strategy and leadership development, helping executives and teams elevate influence, performance, and culture. As CEO of Leaders Empowered, a Maxwell Leadership Faculty Member, and a TEDx Speaker Coach, she equips leaders to step up, stand out, and make lasting impact.
At TEDxAtlanta, Becky channels her passion for communication as a superpower, guiding speakers to use their voice with confidence and clarity so their messages shift perspectives, spark action, and ignite change.
Talk: The Power of Vulnerability by Brené Brown is a favorite because it shows that real leadership is built on trust, connection, and authenticity. High-performing teams thrive when leaders create cultures where people feel valued, heard, and empowered to give their best.
What if everything you’ve been taught about building a successful career no longer applies?
Margaret Weniger has spent years exploring that question from both sides of the table. As director of entrepreneurial programs for CREATE-X at Georgia Institute of Technology, she helps founders navigate uncertainty while building companies designed for the future. As a technology sales executive, leadership strategist and author of “Broken,” she has interviewed hundreds of professionals, founders and executives to understand why some people emerge from career disruption stronger than before.
Margaret’s work sits at the intersection of entrepreneurship, leadership and the changing nature of work. Drawing from her own unconventional career and years of research, she challenges long-held assumptions about success, ambition and what it really takes to build a meaningful career in a world that refuses to stand still.
At TEDxAtlanta, Margaret invites us to rethink one of the most familiar ideas about work. The answer may change not only how you think about your career, but also how you approach whatever comes next.
