Overview

You’re working hard and delivering results. Yet the recognition - the promotions, the opportunities, the seat at the table - isn’t keeping pace. Sound familiar?

The issue usually isn’t your performance. It’s your visibility.

Too many women are waiting for their brilliance to be noticed - when what’s actually happening is that they’re hiding. In this session, our keynote speaker Lauren Paton of Scout + Circle will explore why so many talented women remain under the radar, what’s really holding them back from self-promotion, and how to show up in a way that feels authentic rather than exhausting.

You’ll leave with:

a clear understanding of why visibility matters, and why it’s not the same as showing off
powerful mindset shifts to help you get over hurdles and
practical, immediately applicable strategies to increase your visibility and get recognised for the work you’re already doing

Lauren Paton is the founder of Scout + Circle, a leadership consultancy for women in male-dominated environments. She is a globally recognised leadership strategist, coach and speaker on a mission to get more women seen, heard and promoted in the rooms where real power lives. With a 20-year career spanning some of the world’s biggest brands, Lauren’s work has always had one focus: visibility, strategy and influence that works. In 2026, Lauren was recognised as one of the 17 Top-Rated Keynote Speakers to Work With in Europe, hand-picked by Socialnomics using official global event data.

Admission: This event is free to attend and open to ICMA members and invited guests. Register now.
