"Voor de ANWB heb ik Jacqueline Fackeldey een paar jaar geleden ingeschakeld voor de Kick-off van E-brain-train. Een intern opleidingstraject om marketeers binnen de ANWB meer online kennis bij te brengen. Ik kende Jacqueline al van eerdere, zeer inspirerende, presentaties elders.
Jacqueline is in staat om traditionelere denkers op een overtuigende manier een spiegel voor te houden. Zij is in staat om vanuit de processen van bedrijven te denken, deze snel te doorgronden en de beperkende voetangels en klemmen genadeloos te benoemen. Hier laat ze het echter niet bij! Ze pakt relevante innovaties erbij en vertaalt deze naar serieuze kansen. Bij de ANWB resulteerde dit in een bruisende sessie, met een goede evaluatieachteraf en, nog belangrijker, serieuze initiatieven en acties binnen de marketingorganisatie.
De presentaties van Jacqueline vormen een visuele en verbale rollercoaster. Je stapt er in, doet in sneltreinvaart heel veel indrukken op èn praat er met enthousiasme over na. Ze laat de zaal hierbij dus niet ongemoeid, maar betrekt deze actief bij haar betoog en is in staat om flexibel te schakelen op dat wat ze in haar gehoor tegenkomt."
“Andrew is a terrific panel discussion moderator. He is always well prepared, knows how to involve the audience and how to move the conversation forward, beyond the obvious and into the insightful.”
“Andrew moderated a panel for us in Davos titled The Rise of Civic Tech and Impact Investing. And he did it masterfully! Not only did Andrew frame the discussion in a fresh and engaging way, he turned the panel into a real conversation and an authentic exchange with the audience.”
“2018 was a ten-year anniversary of our TEDx conference, and as always we were searching for someone who can present their field in a new light with a perspective to which the global TED community may not have access. We could not have been more happy with Andrew’s presentation - the ideas he shared really resonated with the 700 people in the audience and his delivery was impeccable, making Andrew's speech one of the most talked about in our two days event.”
“Andrew is a gifted speaker, who knows how to keep the audience engaged. His ideas are thought provoking and his delivery is world class.”
"At The Economist, our conferences are second to none when it comes to speaker selection, depths of discussion, and insights that those discussions generate. It was a great pleasure to have Andrew join a panel I moderated. What was especially memorable about Andrew’s contribution is his ability to marry the global perspective with deep knowledge of the technology sector. I have continued to actively follow Andrew’s commentary since the event"
“At The Next Web conference in Amsterdam (TNW 2019), Andrew hosted a roundtable focusing on trust: how could business earn it and what it takes to sustain it. The session was truly engaging. Trust is a core topic for me and my team, and the insights I’ve gotten from Andrew’s presentation were immediately applicable.”
