Way before she became a motivational speaker on resilience and mastered resilience as a subject matter, Jillian Haslam’s connection with resilience began on a winding and remarkable journey that shaped the person she is today.
From spending 16 years of her early life in a Calcutta slum, to embarking on a thriving 23-year career in some of the world’s biggest banks, Jillian’s story is one of adversity; yet, filled with undertones of grit and determination, which exemplifies how individuals and organisations can use these qualities to overcome setbacks.
Jillian is one of the most sought-after female motivational speakers UK and around the world over, and it’s easy to see why.
As a resilience speaker, her ability to captivate audiences with her stirring imagery is sure to leave a lasting impression. For Jillian, however, it’s less about making an impression, and more about inspiring transformative attitudes and practices that deliver tangible, sustainable results for organisations and their people.
The motivational business speaker tailors her talks, keynotes and corporate resilience training sessions to the context of the event, and to suit different organisations, teams and groups.
As a resilience motivational speaker, Jillian’s message is as authentic as it is inspiring and relatable. Every organisation – no matter how successful – struggles with challenges of its own, never mind universal headwinds that range from disruption, to innovation fatigue and complacency, competition and uncertainty.
By working with a business speaker or resilience coach with the expertise and experience in helping businesses navigate change and difficult times, it becomes easier to not only come out of it unscathed, but also achieve peak success.
