“I wanted to thank you for a tremendous performance last night. I’ve had fantastic feedback. At coffee machines and in corridors, people have stopped me to comment on a great evening but also, how much they took away from your presentation. You left people with many memorable pieces of learning. You showed you understood our organisation which isn’t easy coming from outside and given we are often too insular, you gave us lots of examples from other industries and the everyday. You learn a lot more when the examples resonate as yours did. I thought the Mohammed Ali stories were terrific and the last one left the audience on a great high. So thank you for making the evening very memorable, good fun but with some serious learning at the same time.”
