Libby's message of action and accountability was strong, impassioned and clear. Her interactive presentation struck a deep chord with our female professionals and really helped set the tone for our event.

Monica DeTullio Microsoft Corporation

Libby Gill just presented at our national conference and the feedback I'm getting is that Libby is the best opening keynote speaker we've ever had. She reached out to our members before she came here to find out what the specific leadership challenges they were facing and wove it into the presentation.

CEO Sandy Markwood National Association for Area Agencies on Aging

I previewed more than 20 speakers for our leadership event, but kept coming back to Libby. The warmth and intelligence that I saw in her video were exactly what I wanted for our group of high potential future leaders. And Libby delivered even more than I’d hoped.

Kathy Martin PayPal

Very relevant, thought provoking.
