What clients say about Eliza Filby

“Eliza’s was a simply exceptional contribution to our recent conference. Insightful, inspiring, surprising, and occasionally (appropriately!) provocative – her analysis of Generational change, and what it means for a function like ours thinking about engaging our audiences, was just brilliant. My people were blown away, and are still talking about elements of what they learnt, and its application in their work, weeks after. I can pay no greater compliment than that to the quality of what she delivered for us.” Chief Brand & Corporate Affairs Officer, Aviva Plc
“Eliza did a fantastic session at our relationship manager offsite – talking about the different views, attitudes and opinions of multiple generations. Eliza is an expert and highly engaging speaker and her subject matter is vital for all businesses to grapple with if we’re to adapt to ever more complex times.” CEO, Julius Baer International Ltd
“It was a pleasure having Eliza as a guest speaker at our LinkedIn flagship event, Forward – and back for a second event due to how well her insights resonated with our senior talent audience. Eliza brings a wealth of insight in her talks and deep understanding of how different industries and functions work, as well as the challenges they face. She also has a great ability to engage with the audience, keep them energised and inspire them to think differently.” LinkedIn
“Eliza was a breath of fresh air and received the highest feedback scores across all our events. She was extremely engaging and delivered a high energy keynote which got everyone thinking differently about Millennials.” Joint Managing Director at Owen James Events
“ Eliza has engaged our key leaders at all levels and in all sizes of groups; from one or two to six or seven hundred. She naturally takes people with her, makes them think again and come away talking and acting. At our AGM she was able to hold the attention of 700 people in the last session of the day. At a time when other presenters would have lost their audience figuratively and physically, Eliza engaged, entertained and educated. Our franchisees, managers and suppliers left as enlightened about their own families as they were about the opportunities and imperatives for our business” CEO McDonalds UK
“Eliza presented to our London partners on navigating a multi-generational workforce.  The talk was incredibly engaging with content clear, concise and informative.  The feedback from the partners was uniformly positive with a number remarking that it was the best presentation that they had attended in years!  I can’t recommend Eliza highly enough” London Managing Partner, Simpson Thacher
