Bio
Lindsay Shaddy
Alexi is a superb public speaker and facilitator who really knows how to put on a seminar. She brings a wealth of subject knowledge which she is able to convey because of her personality and her skills at audience engagement. She is very comfortable in an interactive environment, drawing people in and encouraging them to share their ideas. When working with children and adolescents, she draws on her sense of humour and patience in bringing along "reluctant" or immature participants, who invariably end up buying in and getting a lot out of the experience. She can also deal with sensitive information with compassion and without sensationalism. Whether in a corporate environment, teaching setting or other situation involving knowledge, communications skills, flexibility and judgment, Alexi is ideally qualified. I recommend her highly.
