Magnificent Chairing of the first Heathrow Community Engagement Board public event. It was mission critical to have a professional, independent and robust Chair. We were thrilled to work with Nadine and to have her support and meticulous insight in advance and on the day.

World Crane and Transport Summit
Nadine did a great job at the Women in Business Awards. She held the evening together brilliantly, shared some great insights and asked very pertinent questions. We’ve never known an awards night where the winners have been so eloquent on stage, and believe that was down to her making them feel at ease while at the same time setting just the right tone with her Q&A.
