Trudy’s content and presentation style kept the group totally engaged...

Ed Kreamer | Leadership Think Tank, Sydney Chair LTT1

My name is Ed Kreamer – Chairman of LTT-1, one of a number of peer advisory groups within the Leadership ThinkTank organisation. My group comprises some 18 member, all CEO’s and/or owners of businesses ranging is size from $10 to $100m in turnover and from a broad spectrum of industries.

I recently engaged Trudy MacDonald – Founder and Managing Director of TalentCode HR to present to my group her engaging and informative presentation “Creating a Culture of Accountability”.

Now when you put 18 CEO’s in a room for 4 hours they expect/demand payback for their time. None were disappointed! Trudy’s content and presentation style kept the group totally engaged – just Trudy, her wealth of knowledge and a flip chart. The subject matter was relevant and practical, full of takeaways and tools that the members could apply the following day in their respective businesses.

Throughout the session the group continued to asked challenging questions, some even a little out of left field. Trudy’s ability to think on her feet and provide relevant answers was impressive.

Some of the comments from members on the feedback forms included,

  • it was brilliant across all areas
  • this was one of the best speakers the group has had. The tools and take outs were current and relevant.
  • awesome 12/10.

I highly recommend Trudy MacDonald.

Ed Kreamer – Chair LTT-1.

Highly awarded thought leadership…
