Many of the team still talk about your session last year. This is fantastic and exactly what we want to achieve.

There are speakers, and then there are speakers who light up a room, who hold an audience in the palm of their hands, who mesmerise, and who provide substance and content that makes a real difference. Trudy is one of ’those’ speakers.

We have been working with Trudy now for 4+ years and our members gain so much from her sessions. She really is an outstanding presenter who ‘nails’ the topic every time and enriches the participants experience by sharing practical frameworks that can be easily implemented, back in the workplace.

Everyone said that you were the best speaker they had ever seen! It was absolutely amazing and the feedback from our members and everyone was so positive about the practical and powerful takeaways.

“Trudy’s wealth of knowledge, exceptional skillset in being able to discern and articulate themes with clarity and to ‘push/nurture’ the room towards productive forward momentum is a true gift!”

Amazing session today. So grateful to Trudy for helping us navigate such difficult terrain. She has done a masterful job building our skills and mutual trust to get us to this point. I think now that we will see an acceleration in our performance as a team.

Thanks Trudy for facilitating another great session with our Aussie Leadership team last week! What a worthwhile opportunity it was to invest in our EQ, self-awareness, our understanding of each other, and to make our team even stronger
