Feedback
“If you're looking for a lively and engaging speaker to work with you and your team, then look no further than Sarah. Sarah ran a super online event for the PRCA with PR leaders across the north of England, exploring how we manage the stress levels of the people in our care as well as importantly, our own stress levels. She is a natural and eloquent communicator, who puts the audience at ease and manages to encourage them to participate in the sessions (which is an especially hard task when online!). Sarah has extensive knowledge of nurturing staff, developing skills, exploring their wellbeing, and evolving cultures with organisations - which I'd say are vitally important areas for any business to focus on in 2021.”
