Rachael Robertson ‘accidentally’ found herself leading a team of 120 in Antarctica for 12 months. The challenges and successes she experienced, form the basis of her keynotes about leadership, resilience and empowering women.
Her stories of plane crashes, bacon wars and ‘no triangles’ produce a gripping and entertaining presentation that draws parallels between the dangerous Antarctic winds of the driest place on earth, and the warm city office environment. Oh yes, and can an IT guy become an anaesthetist in two weeks? You bet!
