Keynote, Business & Motivational Speaker

Adèle recently agreed to be our keynote speaker for a networking night with our supporters and the young women we work with (aged 17-20).  She was an absolute pleasure to work with and made the preparation and lead-up effortless.  From the minute she arrived on the evening, she jumped right in speaking with our young people, networking, and sharing her stories.  Her speech was inspiring yet practical and informative, as she shared her own experiences and advice to help guide the women their in their own journeys. She fielded questions from the audience with ease and candor.  One of our supporters wrote in her feedback form, ”Adèle is such a brilliant speaker! Amazing for both mentors [adult young] and mentees [young women]!’  We were thrilled to have Adèle as our speaker and highly recommend her!’

I was fortunate to line up an interview with Adèle McLay for my Industry Angel Podcast.  I had been aware of Adèle through the work she has completed assisting businesses to streamline their processes, achieve growth and ensuring the staff culture is a great place to call work.  Adèle is without doubt one of the humblest business speakers I know, such confidence and knowledge backed with an approachable manner.  Episode feedback was extremely pleasing, one regular listener described this episode as “the best by a country mile.”  I look forward to speaking with Adèle again to share her knowledge in further areas.

I interviewed Adèle on the subject of ‘The Power of Vulnerability to Win More Business (and Friends)’ for my online summit interview series.

Adèle was a wonderful interviewee; it was honestly one of my favourites!  Adèle was authentic, honest, powerful but also showed her vulnerability and she certainly brought that out in me; I felt so comfortable with her that I shared some quite personal feelings about my ‘story’ that I know deeply connected with the audience as I have gained amazing feedback on the interview from fans and members of my tribe, old and new.

In a nutshell, Adèle was such a pleasure to interview, she is inspiring, fun and uplifting and has a powerful, important message to share.  I couldn’t recommend her enough and felt such a connection with her we have become friends as a result of our interview together!

I first saw Adèle McLay speaking in New Zealand over 20 years ago.

She is a brilliant speaker.  The audience was completely engaged, motivated and inspired by the event.

Since then I have followed Adèle’s business journey as she successfully moved her entrepreneurial business leadership to the international stage.  At the same time, Adèle’s personal story is compelling.  She has succeeded in the face of significant adversity.

Let Adèle tell your management teams her story.  It is a great story that connects and makes relevant many personal and business issues.  I am sure you and your teams will be referring back to the lessons from her story several weeks after the event.

I have recently gotten to know Adèle after participating in the Global Business Networking Summit she hosted.  She is not only successful professionally and has consulted and coached C-Suite execs, Adèle has a remarkable personal and business story.  She shares her story in a heartfelt, inspiring and connected way when speaking to those fortunate to be in her audiences.   I  know Adèle continues to be an inspiration on the many stages around the world.

Adèle recently agreed to be a speaker for the Careers With Purpose Summit, an event for purpose-led leaders/professionals and entrepreneurs.  Her expertise in personal branding and her natural inclination to want to make a lasting, positive impact meant that having her as an expert summit contributor was a no-brainer.  The session she provided was a powerful and uplifting account that received a number of positive messages from event attendees.  I’m proud to have had Adèle as a speaker among the other world leading experts and Thought Leaders and I couldn’t recommend her highly enough!

Adèle gave a presentation to 60 of our members representing a wide range of businesses across Berkshire, England.  It was pitched at the right level for the mix of businesses we had in the room, and there was a good question and answer session at the end.  The feedback we had was very positive and Adèle’s message on how to increase profits was very clear.  The topics covered were easy to implement, and the workshop combined the right amount of theory with how to practically apply what had been covered.  Thanks, Adèle.

As a small business owner, knowing someone like Adèle McLay is a fantastic benefit to me.  I’ve had many questions recently about cash flow issues and how best to approach my clients on certain matters, and her advice has always been invaluable.  She has a wealth of experience on running and managing businesses of all sizes and has always been very honest and direct with her suggestions.  As a small business owner, I wish I’d known her since the day I started my business!!
