Official Feedback from In-Person & Virtual Events
Feedback from In-Person Events:
“Amy did a fireside chat and answered questions that we had prepared and sent to her in advance as well as taking questions from the audience. We had a lot of positive feedback from the group about her advice on this topic and I personally really liked this style of speaking because the audience were a lot more involved and engaged when their own questions were being answered. It meant that the talk was very targeted to our group and it was a good opportunity to get your own questions answered by a professional.” - Riona, Astrazeneca
“Amy's method of presenting brings a witty, highly-informative, and engaging presence. She truly understands her audience and is attentive to make her content relevant and exceedingly relatable to those in the room. The time flew by and was a pleasure to listen and learn from. One of the few presenters where even we were hooked listening to!” - Sam, Production Crew, Firebird Events Ltd
“In the most lively and energetic way Amy has helped us understand how our brain can prevent us from reaching our full potential and has given us some practical ways to overcome this. Very insightful and stimulating.” - Rob, MD, CEO, Recordati S.p.A
