We were honoured to have Niki as the keynote speaker at our international annual conference for interdisciplinary professionals in interstitial lung disease. Niki was an incredible force who swept the audience up in “The Power of the Ownership Culture: The Future of Work.” She took us on a journey and delivered powerful examples of how potential, creativity and audacity can revolutionise the work place. Niki is an incredibly engaging and passionate speaker. The audience was captivated and when Niki invited us to join the ownership revolution, there was a unanimous yes! So many identified with the girl in the red coat (if you know, you know) and left feeling accepted and part of the ownership revolution community. You absolutely must consider Niki as a speaker at your events to inspire and motivate people to deliver positive change in the work.
