‘Jenny was engaged to present to my team on ‘Brain Fitness’. The presentation took the form of a slide show with Jenny providing narration throughout. Time was provided at the end for questions and answers. I can confirm that the information was delivered by Jenny in a professional manner and was well received by the audience of approximately forty participants’.

I would like to say thank you very much for delivering such an insightful, clear and interesting presentation on ‘Your brain at work’. The topic though complex was presented so simply and graphically and was enjoyed by all managers present. It empowered and motivated all of us to use our thinking skills more effectively and have a can-do approach towards our own health and wellbeing as an achievable and controllable goal. It has been great liaising with you regarding the forum and your friendly professional approach has made it a great working relationship. Thank you again.

“Thank you so much for your inspiring presentation to the Iridium Group. It was very much appreciated by all. Your presentation style is friendly, yet your expertise is clearly evident and the way in which you explain core concepts is clearly understood.”

Dear Jenny,
Thank you for your most enlightening presentation to our Service Leaders last week. The Service Leaders are the select group of Brightwater employees who are the main link between those who deliver the service and those who are in need of services. All Brightwater clients have individual and special needs so it is this group of Managers and Coordinators who carry the burden for ensuring each and every client have the best possible care outcomes.
The Brain Fit for Life presentation and interaction was found to these important Managers and Coordinators to be both entertaining and enlightening. The ‘take home’ messages were simple and powerful and personal goals are achievable. The Service Leaders operate within quite intense work environments and your engagement with Brightwater has provided us all with a means by which to make our own improvements to our own lives.

Executive Assistant Network (EAN) has approximately 3000 members, (EAs and PAs to CEOs and senior executives) across Australia and holds annual conferences across five States and Territories. The Network’s goal is to provide a range of support services, free or low-cost educational initiatives and networking opportunities designed to make it easier for EAs and PAs to become more proficient and efficient in their roles and therefore to make it easier for them to provide the levels of service now expected by modern corporate executives.
Jenny presented a topic at our Perth conference in February entitled “Our brains at work: How neuroleadership can enhance collaboration and understanding”. Jenny was given a very short timeframe in which to gain insight into our requirements for this segment, the demographics of the audience and the background to the conference. Despite this she perfectly captured all that we expected from this topic.
Jenny has a very calm and engaging presence on stage and made a very complex topic interesting and enjoyable for all the delegates. She connected well with the audience. Jenny did not use rhetorical statements and hackneyed clichés but provided the delegates with practical strategies to enable them to build ‘brain fitness’ and to improve interpersonal skills and to help reach peak performance. She is a very intelligent and professional presenter.
It was a pleasure to work with such an astute, engaging and professional speaker. I would not hesitate to recommend Jenny to any organisation that may wish to engage her as a presenter at any conference or event.
I would be happy to expand on any of the points above if required.
Yours faithfully,
Helen Ainsworth
