Testimonials

"Awesome session with the Exec. A judgement free space to expand on our uncertainties and really practical tips. Catherine is one of life's radiators that brings energy to the room!"

Principality Building Society

"Catherine immediately created a safe and open environment, building a strong rapport with everyone in a matter of minutes. Her constructive approach, theory, practical action and sense of humour helped our leaders thinking different about DEI."

esure

"Catherine got to grips with our journey and values, and used stories to bring inclusion to life in a way that generated conversation, confidence and action. Catherine's authentic and practical approach worked brilliantly - and it was a lot of fun too!"

Spriax-Sarco Engineering

"The magic in what you present and how you answer questions makes something leaders find complex and daunting, clearer and more doable. You are an extraordinarily clear and centred communicator who never patronises and brings deep credibility due to your experience of doing."

Wavelength Connect

"We hosted a company-wide session with Catherine Garrod. Her book Conscious Inclusion: How to 'do' EDI one decision at a time' is highly recommended and, after listening to Catherine speak, I can understand why. As she put it herself: "Unless you're consciously including people, you're almost certainly unconsciously excluding people", which is a powerful reminder."

Virgin

"Catherine is a truly engaging presenter and positioned her advice and knowledge perfectly to the audience. Catherine has been a brilliant support to Bupa UK Insurance and we look forward to continuing to work together."
