WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
“Rabia provided us with a pre-recorded message tailored to our business requirements, aligning her incredible stories and insights with our organisation’s values and our strategic priority of fostering a speak up culture.
We were a little unsure if a pre-recorded message would be as engaging as other live events the Women In Pharma group had already hosted, but there was no need for concern. Most webinar attendees shared that Rabia’s emotion was palpable and they felt as though she was speaking directly to them, something Rabia had guaranteed us in the negotiation process.
Our senior business leaders left the following comments - ‘Wow just incredible!’ and ‘Wow, that almost brought me to tears, but a great reminder of the human spirit.’ Feedback from other employees was equally as positive with one webinar attendee sharing - ‘What an amazing story, it lit a fire in me and has given me the drive to be the change I want to see, especially when it’s out of my comfort zone.’”
