"Upon joining Vodafone I was tasked with finding a business leader to engage a group of aspirant CEOs about strategy creation. With our three strategic priorities of customers, simplicity and growth in mind - and particularly double-digit vs. incremental growth - I stumbled across Lital's profile. She struck me as a provocateur and storyteller who had a knack for simplifying the complicated. I wasnt disappointed. She recently led a 3-hour workshop for this leadership group, receiving feedback including "this was the best session I've attended in my time here", "inspiring" and "I've already started applying all three ideas you've introduced". Lital nailed the exam question - to provoke and inspire, as well as introduce some practical methods for leaders to apply right away. I'm looking forward to partnering with Lital once more with a different audience and this time round broken into 2*2 hour workshops for more exponential thinking to take place and hopefully convert into bold experiments for exponential growth." Sam Sheppard, Leadership Development Senior Manager, Vodafone

Her effective use of real world and personal stories provided an impact most general session speakers fail to accomplish.
