The buzz in the room was palpable during our #NT100is5 panel discussion, and there’s no doubt it was enhanced by Adah’s energy and passion. Her insights into the future of tech, business and humanity have been a valuable addition to our podcast series Our Lives + Tech.
Adah Parris has been pivotal in helping us ask ourselves important questions as individuals, teams and of the projects we're developing. As a result, we've been able to step forward with greater awareness and clarity and our projects have been made much stronger and dynamic.
We approached Adah to explore both company brand positioning and personal branding for our fundraising team. It was an invaluable experience and we now use many of her tips and tools to grow our external positioning.
Adah is a delight. Her energy and enthusiasm are matched only by her knowledge and intellect and she possesses that enviable attribute to truly engage an audience. Her presentations weave useful, salient points throughout a highly personal narrative meaning delegates always leave with something. That she’s super organised and knows just about everyone is simply a bonus!
