Simone de Haas is an outstanding speaker on leadership, communications and corporate storytelling. Her presentations to the CEO Institute groups of senior CEOs on leadership insights have been powerful, insightful, entertaining and highly engaging.

CEO Institute, Qld

Simone de Haas is an exceptional and inspiring speaker who, in a very short fifteen minutes of our corporate 'TedTalks' style event was able to invigorate and excite the audience. Simone's job was to move the audience and to enable them to ask some very deep questions. As the organiser of the event, what I saw was a speaker who delivered well beyond brief and an audience captivated from beginning to end.
