Highly Recommended
Gabrielle Dolan is an inspirational speaker who draws from her experience as a global thought leader on authentic leadership and strategic storytelling to connect with and wow audiences across the globe. We had the great fortune to engage Gabrielle as the opening keynote speaker for our IABC World Conference
in Washington, D.C. In front of our international group of more than 1,000 people, she demonstrated an exceptional ability to capture and challenge our audience while delivering some great tips about becoming better leaders and communicators using the art of storytelling. I highly recommend Gabrielle as a keynote speaker for your next event.

Great audience connection
I could not recommend Gabrielle more highly: this is a tough subject topic - senior leaders can be very suspicious of the benefit of storytelling - but Gabrielle drives home the message elegantly. She has a great connection with the audience whether they be CEO's of businesses or front line team leaders - she passes on years of learning into a very easy to understand chapters. She is very 'low maintenance", needs little or no introduction; the event organisers all commented that it was a pleasure to work with her. Gabrielle is highly entertaining - but her message hits the target and resonates. Not surprisingly she received the highest rating from all 700 delegates - the star of the event.
