Bio
Jo Hendriks
Er zijn mensen die het verloop van je bedrijf en je persoonlijk leven voor altijd veranderen. Ianka is er zo ééntje. Tijdens een knappe workshop ontrafelde ze de geheimen van het presenteren en het storytelling. Met de kunde van een meester verteller toonde ze ons hoe je een publiek moest boeien en overtuigen. Maar ze toonde ons nog veel meer. Ze liet ons zien dat er in ieder van ons een verhaal en een verteller kan schuilen. Zij is de gids om die boodschap effectief naar buiten te brengen. Dankzij haar kunde en kennis zwaait het spotlight van de aandacht in je richting en kan je een speld horen vallen wanneer je spreekt. Ze doet dat op haar unieke en aanstekelijke manier. Als je bedrijf ECHT wat te vertellen heeft? Dan moet je zeker naar deze jongedame luisteren. .... nu boeken .. zo simpel is het.

Ianka was our ‘Master of Ceremony’ during the UBA Trends Day, an event with 1450 marketing and communication professionals. She was brilliant in introducing the speakers and in engaging with the audience. We enjoyed working with her and our attendees showed their appreciation in the event-survey.

We invited Ianka to be the moderator of our Women of the Year Award. She responded very professionally to our request and prepared the event in a serious way, thoroughly reading the material we submitted and asking for further elicitation if needed. The day of the event she got caught in a terrible traffic jam and only arrived at the very last minute. But she jumped directly to the stage and got started. The audience was never aware of the stress she must have felt. Ianka did an excellent job in our marvelous event. Marij Elias, Chair of BE Lioness, the Women's Network of ING Belgium.
