What people say about Sue's talks
“Sue, thank you, your stories really helped to put Change / our mindset into perspective. A powerful presentation.”
“The stories were brilliant to get me to think about decision making in face of uncertainty in very different situations.”
“I strongly recommend Dr. Sue Mitchell’s talk “Leading through times of uncertainty and change” – the sailing analogy resonated extremely well with the audience of our regional leadership team and the authentic, practical and engaging leadership guidance stuck with them. More than 8 months later, the topic is more relevant than ever. Hearing our leaders recalling the concepts and messages when faced with current changes and uncertainty is the best evidence that Sue’s inspirational talk had impact and left our leaders with content and experience we can lean on.”
" …it was so inspiring and gave really practical tips. To commit to doing something and come away with an action plan is a huge value add…. It was very tailored to what we wanted for our audience. …Sue was really well prepared, scoped out everything, well-rehearsed and a really easy person to engage with from a planning point of view … "
