“We chose Nancy as a keynote speaker for our Google Marketing Platform Conference in Dublin. The audience was made up 300+ advertisers and agencies who came to listen to talks on Google’s latest products. Nancy delivered her talk “Extreme Customer Centricity” to help us demonstrate the changing nature of the modern consumer which tied in perfectly with our theme and tone for the event. Nancy was an absolute professional to work with in advance, discussing the narrative for the conference and customising her content for our audience. On the day, she was inspiring. She delivered her talk with confidence and charisma. “Extreme Customer Centricity” was the highest rated talk of the event and was specifically called out by a number of advertisers as their highlight. I would highly recommend Nancy as a Keynote speaker for any event.” Brian McCaffrey, Sales Manager – Google Marketing Platform
“It was a real pleasure to have Nancy as guest speaker for the KPMG Life Sciences Community Event in Zurich, Switzerland. Nancy exceeded the audience’s expectations with her keynote about “fostering a culture of innovation”. Her speech was very powerful, yet she kept it very entertaining and inspiring at the same time. She left the audience with some very remarkable aspects that stick in the mind. We would like to emphasize Nancy’s enthusiasm and clear demonstration of expertise in delivering an industry specific keynote.
Great work, we can recommend Nancy anytime. Thank you!” Martin Rohrbach, Head of Life Sciences – KPMG Switzerland
“The event went really well and was very much appreciated by everyone, in no small part thanks to Nancy’s inspirational keynote. In a humorous, warm yet clear and strong way she has shown Q8 exactly how much the world has changed and how important it is to keep up with that change. One of the best if not the best keynote we have had for our Leadership Days, and certainly something to follow up!” Nick Cuyvers,
Senior HR Business Partner – Q8
“Nancy’s passionate and to-the-point speech brought the whole room together with razor-sharp focus, challenging us all to spend more time thinking about the future. Elegantly bringing our conference theme to life, Nancy shared some powerful insights into why customer centricity is so important for companies to survive and thrive in an age of digital disruption. Her wit and humour turned a wake-up-call into an easy to digest positive plan of action. Our audience were clearly wowed, and we’ve already invited Nancy back to future Gamma events.” Alex Ayers, Sales Director – Gamma
“We don’t invite external speakers that often. In the preparation for a very important event for us, the first MIDI Human Pharma Conference, we were looking for a partner who would fit into the bigger vision of this day and direction we want to inspire, and at the same time surprise us beyond our expectations. Nancy overachieved on that. Important for me was that she was not only interesting but interesTED in where we stand, what we have done so far, and what relevant contribution she can make. As a result we have seen 212 slides in the blink of an eye, the interest was raised in the first 30 seconds and only expanded in the duration of her talk. The audience said they were not only inspired but blown away. So I do expect longer lasting changes in curiosity level and actual acting on the Day after Tomorrow. Thank you!” Tamilla Mahkamova, Regional Human Pharma Business Partner – Boehringer Ingelheim
