On behalf of London Economic Action Partnership and the Mayor of London, we cannot thank Anis enough for joining us as a speaker. She found the perfect balance between inspiring, spurring the audience to take action and offering practical steps to get it done. She really took the time to understand our audience of diverse business owners, their challenges and the impact we wanted to make. Anis you crafted a talk that well and truly delivered – Fabulous! We received so much incredible feedback – they said they found inspiration and received practical advice to help them break through barriers and achieve the potential. It was also great to see the buzz on social media (the mayor did some posts as well).
