"Tom came and presented at our Inspiring Women in Financial Services Conference, a conference bringing together 250 Female Advisers and Practice Principals from across the firms in The Openwork Partnership (a holistic Advisory Network in the UK). Tom held the audience captivated with insight from his research around Performance Maximisation versus Wellbeing Maximisation and how the Human Centric approach is of vital importance to individuals and therefore a performance accelerator. Tom also shared his insight and ideas/tools on the benefit of having a solid picture of our future self and what really makes us happy. The audience very much enjoyed the factual insight and the presentation style of Tom lead to a truly inspirational and thought-provoking session. I would highly recommend."
