The Speaker’s PURPOSE in the Age of Digital Disruption
"We are trapped in a moment, caught between the power and ability to destroy our planet and our inability to leave it en masse" - Stephen Hawking
How can leaders influence the flow of history at this pivotal moment? Our actions matter and what we believe affects what we create. As leaders, we inspire people to change, to act differently, to reach and impact people and this gives us the power to shape the future in unprecedented ways.
As the Master of Ceremonies for the Asia Professional Speaker's Convention 2019, I had the pleasure of watching 30 Global Speakers present over two days. Natalie was one of the stand-out presenters to our ballroom of 280 international attendees. Her passion, warmth and uplifting talk delighted the audience and gave them value around the topic of the 'purpose' in these times of dramatic change. I highly recommend her for your event.
