“ Katrina, thank you for being so great presenting at our conference! Last year we organised an internal regional conference, with more than 200 consultants, recruiters and operational leaders participating from various countries. Was looking for inspiring and knowledgable speaker to share the wisdom of Digital Recruitment and Talent Engagement. Katrina’s presentation was spot on – covering all that we’re looking for in an engaging and positive way. Great energy and a lot of knowledge!

– Tamara Shenk, VP Marketing, EMEA, Kelly Services

“ Katrina delivered a session to our entire TA team at GE. Personally, I felt Katrina delivered a session that allowed TA to understand their impact on candidate experience. I loved Katrina’s no nonsense approach; she didn’t shy away from away from showing what bad candidate experience can do to your brand. Katrina was a pleasure to deal with, very insightful and passionate, which came through in her delivery.

– Katie Pawlik, Global Employer Brand Lead

“I met Katrina at a Team Offsite we held on 25th/26th April in Rüdesheim, Germany and had been told that she would be talking to us about social media recruiting, which sounded interesting, but not overly exciting. I could not have been more wrong! Katrina is so passionate about her job and presents in such an inspiring way that, by lunch, I was ready to jack in my Team Leader role and go back to hands-on sourcing! Thank you, Katrina, it was an amazing morning. 

– Bettina Starkmann, Team Leader Recruitment

“ It had been a while since I had attended a SourceCon conference! Then I received an email notice on the topic “Can we Automate Being Human?” It piqued my interest because it’s a subject I have been thinking about as well. I was happy I opened it, I knew right away that I needed to meet her! Katrina’s SourceCon keynote, “Can we Automate Being Human?” really brought life back into our industry! Thank you, Katrina, for bringing back “human” part of HR. Katrina, you’re the real deal and so much more!”

– Kay Kelison, Senior Researcher/Trainer

“ We invited Katrina to speak to our membership of 160 recruitment business leaders on best practice candidate engagement. So pleased we did! Not only did she stimulate, inspire, engage our membership brilliantly, Katrina’s session was packed with so many practical tools and tips that gave the guys some real tangible value. If you want energy, best practice, insights (and someone who stays very cool when there is an AV breakdown), I strongly recommend Katrina.

– Gordon Stoddart, Founding Director
