Testimonials for Catherine Marriott
Catherine Marriott is an engaging and inspiring public speaker. She sets herself apart from the crowd with her ability to influence the attitude and behaviour of those with whom she has contact. A self-deprecating, sometimes hilariously funny speaker, Catherine comes with serious messages about leadership and female leaders, the importance of agriculture and food businesses to Australia and communities in countries that are our export destinations, the importance or earning and retaining community acceptance and support, and the power of individuals working together to deliver change. It is hard to imagine anyone hearing Catherine speak, and then not being able to remember her, and at least one of her messages. If you get a chance to hear her speak, don't miss it, as you will miss an opportunity to think better, be better or do something better as a result.
