“Anna talked on a slightly different topic than one normally gets at networking meetings – personal diet and how it can affect business performance. It certainly gave me food for thought! The talk was very well received and generated many more questions from the floor at the end than we normally experience. She is an excellent and impressive speaker whom I highly recommend.”
