Jackie Handy is a well respected, successful businesswomen who travels internationally and supports global brands in developing their workforce. Using her 25 year career in recruitment, sales and leadership roles she actively promotes leading from the inside out and focuses as much on personal development as on corporate development.
But life hasn't always been easy for her. From 5 years old, Jackie was bullied for her differences. Firstly for her minor disability, then for her religious beliefs and finally in her teens, for her sexual orientation. Yet still Jackie believes she was one of the lucky ones who made it through to adulthood and the boardroom.
Her talk doesn't only share her personal story, but importantly educates on how bullying feels from the perspective of being bullied and observing bullying and saying nothing. Her messages resonate with everyone and links to mental health & wellbeing
She highlights the differences between diversity & inclusion, and stresses the fact the inclusion is not just for minority groups. Straightforward, relatable and simple steps that we can all take to ensure we create the inclusive society we all want to be a part of. Jackie inspires audiences with her story and leaves them with understanding as well as specific actions to take to make a difference.
Jackie Handy has supported hundreds of individuals in numerous organisations around the world in accelerating performance. Formerly a top performing Recruitment Consultant and Manager for 2 decades, she now works with others to give back the recipe for sales and leadership success as well as actively promoting the D&I agenda. Through her corporate speaking, training and consultancy work, as well as her own personal development journey, Jackie has developed a deeper understanding of human behaviour and why we do what we do. She has invested extensively in her own development, which has included psychometric profiling tools (MBTI), Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) and even LEGO ® SERIOUS PLAY®.
