Dinner speaker: Hannah Gordon
Hannah Gordon is a reinvention speaker with a message that lands like a lightning bolt.
She speaks to the people who feel stuck, small, or silenced and helps them see that bold change is always possible, no matter where they’re starting from.
With careers in Sport, Emergency Services and the Automotive industry her talks are raw, relatable, and powerful. Woven with true stories that shake you awake and give you the tools to move forward.
Hannah doesn’t tell you to dream big. She shows you how to move bravely.
Join us at the North West Regional Dinner to hear Hannah speak on Pivots, pitfalls and perseverance: my careers greatest plot twists.
