Rosie’s contribution to the success of our forum was significant. Her professionalism, preparation and engaging interaction with participants ensured the program ran smoothly and we had constructive and meaningful dialogue throughout the day.
As an on-stage facilitator Rosie is warm, incisive and engaging. She facilitated a high stakes planning workshop at ICC Sydney for 75 leaders of the Business Events sector ... Rosie’s design and management of the session drew valuable insights from in-person and virtual participants with excellent delivery, good humour, and a clear sense of purpose.
I’ve seen Rosie facilitate Board-level strategy sessions and stakeholder policy dialogues. She is an absolute professional - warm, engaging, and always thoroughly prepared. We choose to work with Rosie because we know we are in good hands.
