I delivered a virtual trans awareness session this week to 189 staff members of DLA Piper, a global law firm with lawyers in over 40 countries, as part of LGBT+ History Month. This particular session usually lasts for around an hour, but they asked me so may great questions that it ended up lasting for 1.5 hours.
My client, Mick Lawlor, who is a Partner in the disputes practice at DLA Piper wrote this review of my session on LinkedIn: “An excellent session which was funny, moving and educational. Katie is a skilled speaker who really engages her audience. The feedback we have received has been incredible. Thank you Katie!”
Also, looking at these very flattering comments that were left in the chat, my session seems to be very well received…
