Speaking

An engaging and emotive storyteller and ‘Stem-inist'

Thank you so much for such an inspirational talk, you certainly chimed with many of the audience.

We were fortunate to have Ella speak at our 2021 International Women’s Day virtual event at Kimberly-Clark. Having Ella as our keynote speaker added tremendous value to our event about choosing to challenge gender stereotypes and biases. Ella shared her experiences working as a women in a mainly male-dominated industry and offered perspective on how we can all be better advocates for women in the workplace and beyond. We are grateful to Ella for participating in our event and would welcome her back in a heartbeat!

Ella gave an incredibly engaging and valuable presentation to kick off our IWD event. Her story resonated so much with our team and her insights helped equip us with the language and tools to be real agents of change. I could not recommend her more highly. Comments from our team included -

  • What a start to the week! Thanks for arranging for Ella's talk.

  • Well done for sorting Ella as a speaker - thought she was brilliant!

  • Hey, that talk from Ella was great thank you for organising!

  • Loved Ella! Do we know her @ handles on social media? I’d like to follow!

Ella provided an insightful and informative discussion on our Women in Science and Engineering day, her approachable and down to earth delivery really engaged our employees at all levels and was a fantastic addition to our day.

An energetic, passionate and heartfelt talk by Ella about diversity and inclusion. Her unique STEMinist journey has emphasised her message, how change starts by encouraging everyone to act and perform little steps. The attendees loved her and it was one of our highlights this year!

The presentation given by Ella gave the attendees an interesting viewpoint into an exciting industry with learnings that can be applied in our own. She spoke openly and honestly about the differences between paying lip service to diversity and direct action, as well as outlining advice and tools that can be used to challenge gender equality when we see it in others and in ourselves. The topics covered encouraged a very active discussion between colleagues which have continued on past the talk.

This talk stood out because of the way the speaker communicated her personal story about the good and bad of a rising career in the motor racing industry and then recounted her wealth of experience in relation to diversity and inclusion. A moving and thought provoking event.

I specifically enjoyed the diversity and equality element, thinking about aspects we might not necessarily be aware of that we should consider along with her personal history and how she came into project management. I liked that fact she talked about feminism, being to be seen as equal - not burning bras!

It was lovely to meet you and hear your story even as a non-engineer and only occasional motorsport fan. It was very relatable, and I think the points about inclusivity being overlooked with the headline of diversity were very powerful. We have certainly received lovely feedback from all quarters.

Doing

Ella has an incredible wealth of knowledge in business and the industry and as a result I learned a lot from my time working with her. She is dedicated, hard working and a true asset. A pleasure to work with.

It is a well-known fact that it’s very hard to work on your business at the same time as working in it. Working with Ella has allowed us to do just that. She got to the heart of who we are as a brand and how we operate and has translated this into usable processes and unique policies, presented in a creative way that fits into our business perfectly.  We are very excited to be moving forward with an even more professional business thanks to Ella.

Ella has been brilliant to work with on various projects and events. Fantastic support, communication and understanding throughout and nothing was too much.

Ella has an instant passion and enthusiasm for your business. Her approach makes you feel like she’s been part of your team for years.

Ella is my go to process guru!  I love her enthusiasm, passion and drive in this field. In the year that we have been working with her, we have streamlined our business management processes, helping us be more efficient. We have adopted a number of tools that help us be more nimble in our approach to projects. We have been provided with amazing guidelines to ensure we actually follow the new processes. Nothing is ever too big a challenge for Ella, in fact I am confident she thrives on this. I would happily recommend Ella to any business who are looking for a guiding hand with introducing practical business processes that work.

I have always found Ella to be hugely knowledgeable, very professional but also an absolute pleasure to work with due to her "can do" attitude and her friendly and positive approach. I would have no hesitation in recommending Ella (and have done so on many occasion already) to anyone in my network.

Thank you so much for your time yesterday. I thorough enjoyed our session and learning more about your secret resources and time hacks! I came away slightly frazzled but buzzing with excitement about how we can improve our decks, documents and templates.

Ella has been an incredible support to us as a small charity. Her knowledge and guidance has been invaluable and we are incredibly lucky to have benefited from her expertise which has allowed us to have clarity, clear vision and assisted us in streamlining our work load.
