Lynne Parker founded Funny Women in 2002 in response to a misogynist comedy promoter who told her that 'women aren't funny'. She went on to create the Funny Women Awards and 20 years on, the rest is history.
Funny Women is now an acclaimed not-for-profit community for women to build self-confidence and develop their own distinctive voice. Lynne describes it as her ‘life’s work’ providing a safe, diverse, creative platform that empowers women to perform, write and use humour in business and everyday life.
In addition to producing comedy shows and running events, Lynne is a renowned performance coach encouraging people in business and public life to 'Stand Up to Stand Out'. Borrowing techniques from the world of stand-up comedy, Lynne has developed workshops and runs events under the HERlarious brand to improve self-confidence, develop presentation skills and build teams. Her work empowers many women both professionally and personally to have a voice.
Lynne brings her two worlds together in her podcast, HOW TO HAVE FUN AT WORK, with guests from both comedy and business.
