Official Feedback from In-Person & Virtual Events
Feedback from In-Person Events:
"Krish worked alongside us to develop and deliver a bespoke programme for budding entrepreneurs. His approach to delivery strikes a unique balance between being deeply inspirational and generously humble. Krish is a catalyst for the sparking of ideas and is ever moving in is mission to make working for social good an essential feature of all of our working lives, regardless of the sector we work in. He comes with my highest commendation." - Rich, Nova Adviser, Community and Enterprise Development
"Krish delivered a talk on Sharing the Power of Your Story to our team of 16 people. The session was inspiring, both through hearing about the stories of others and practicing reframing our own stories. We often talk about bringing our whole selves to work and the exercises Krish led challenged us to continue being vulnerable, and to continue listening to and empowering one another." - Sophie, Network Operations Manager, Student Hubs
"Krish led a session at our school where he discussed how making dramatic changes to his life has benefitted, not only himself, but others, too. He talked about his charitable campaigns, which included helping Ugandan children and the homeless in the UK. He then went on to discuss how others, similar to him, want to inspire and through a podcast, intends to share their stories with the world. Krish is a honest, selfless, hardworking young man and a credit to his family and friends." - Mr Coffey, School Teacher, Bolton School
"I just wanted to thank you personally, and on behalf of TCAT, for your contribution on Friday. Your talk was very well received by everyone and I certainly think we can look to work together more- I know many schools already want to make contact! The power of 1 certainly resonated with me and seemed to be a theme that continued throughout the day." - Mrs Briggs, Director of Education, The Challenge Academy Trust (TCAT)
"I continually relate to and agree with so much of what you say and it’s wonderful how far you’ve come since that journal entry of yours, well done. A lot of the stuff you talk about is related to personal development and as someone who is a big advocate of this, I don’t come across enough people our age who are recognise the importance of it or even know what it is." - Hannah, Project Manager, Ao.com
"I honestly didn’t expect to spend most of Wednesday evening crying – it was one of the most moving events we’ve ever had in the Lecture Theatre and I wish more people had seen it. Those young people are incredibly brave and some have been through the most horrific trauma – hearing them tell their stories in their own words made it doubly special. I’d love to do some more with this and I am going to look to have an event in the new library if that’s OK with you." - Anne, Learning and Programmes Officer, Bolton Central Library and Museum Service
