OF OUR CLIENTS SAY
Tania Ellis led us into the world of Corporate Social Responsibility and Sustainability in a carefully crafted three-part presentation that proved to be both highly entertaining and informative… A thoroughly enjoyable talk, I noted a number of people near me looked positively ecstatic that they now had a genuinely well-informed idea about what CSR and sustainability mean along with examples they could share with others.
Late June we organised the SVN Europe Conference 'Get on the Dancefloor, part 1', in the Netherlands, with Tania as one of the speakers. I can recommend her as an inspirational speaker but also as a dancer. She got ‘the house’ on fire!
Tania Ellis provided an inspiring and engaged presentation about the sustainable bottom line at our meeting for The Danish Chamber of Commerce HRM Network. In a clear and concise manner, she presented the many facets of CSR and business practice worth knowing about. No doubt, Tania has an immense knowledge of CSR.
Tania Ellis communicates about CSR in such a charming, convincing, clear and catchy way, that you just want to dive in and go ahead working with challenges that CSR also bring along.
Tania’s presentation showed how Corporate Social Responsibility will play a decisive role in the future regarding an organization’s ability to attract and retain talented employees and how CSR at the same time will give a competitive advantage. It was evident, that Tania has profound knowledge on the subject, and she presented a lot of illustrative examples of how a company can approach new initiatives and thereby gain both increased employee satisfaction and improve reputation.
“It was inspiring to hear about partnerships with private companies in connection with voluntary work. It's a pure win win … In the municipality we have a strategy for social economy, and we got something we could take with us in our further work. I was reminded that there are more partners to dance with than just the municipality administration and the volunteers. Companies and the state are also important partners.”
