After your talk I found myself wondering how to get a polar-type leadership programme off the ground: what a fantastic learning experience that would be for people.
- NHS

The key message I took away was about our challenging environment, and I thought Ann’s approach was very refreshing: don’t waste time and energy getting angry about the environment you are in and the difficulties you face, but instead start planning how you are going to deal with them. I think this is relevant for all of us at work and even outside work.

I suspect I speak for the majority of your audience when I say that you were absolutely superb! It was such a pleasure to hear you speak so passionately about both your terrible lows and exhilarating highs while on the ice.
- Buckinghamshire County Council

You gave us all plenty of food for thought and excellent material for discussion. We had a very constructive discussion afterwards about the leadership qualities and behaviours you demonstrated. The next day people were still making lots of references to it, from how to get along better with your own ‘stalking polar bears’ to being clear about where your own North Pole is and being flexible enough to do whatever it takes to get there.
- Metronet

Thank you for being such a brilliant speaker. I have had tremendous feedback. Needless to say it will be an evening that will remain in people’s minds.
- Women in Advertising and Communications London

I thought Ann Daniels was the best speaker we had ever had. I was in awe of her achievements and the light-hearted but inspirational way she related them.
- International Women’s Day

Ann was exceptional. A real inspiration. She has a fantastic story to tell and she does this in such an engaging way that everyone in the audience can draw something from her experiences and relate it to their own lives. This was certainly the case for me and although I’ve no intention of going to the
Poles I was inspired to reflect on other challenges I want to overcome and goals I want to achieve.
- Staffordshire University
