Sharon is a joy to work with because of the passion and enthusiasm she brings. Her expertise and energy in conceptualising employer branding and engagement projects is inspiring as is the respect she demonstrates with colleagues and stakeholders across all levels. She also demonstrated an entrepreneurial drive in finding new ways to create content given resource limitations. She has a great attitude and desire to spearhead new experiences, while always taking feedback positively. Amongst other projects, I had the pleasure of partnering her on the FastTrack internship initiative, where she worked seamlessly together with the Comms function, other internal stakeholders, colleagues across industries joining hands in partnership and with next-gen talented students. I fully recommend her for the value she brings professionally and beyond this, her fun and genuine persona makes her a great person to work with. All the best!

Sharon joined Fortude as a Gigger - to support in the area of employer branding and talent acquisition. She has been a great asset to team. From her out of the box thinking to her creativity on presentations, Sharon is a true team player. I have known Sharon for over 5 years, and through the years I have also seen her do some excellent / engaging training programs in her role as project team member at AHRP (Association of HR professionals). Last year she was the co project chair for the HR Think Tank (HRTT) -3 which was the first ever virtual HRTT I would not hesitate in recommending Sharon and wish her all the very best!
