University of Queensland Emerging Business Conference, July 2007.(Keynote presenter)
“Leanne was invited to present the keynote address because she was the top Information Systems student in the MBA degree at the University of Queensland in 2006. Leanne’s presentation was well prepared, well organised and well delivered bearing in mind the level of the audience to which she presented.
We received many comments afterwards from students and teachers alike praising the way in which Leanne had pitched her presentation at the right level, and how she had kept the attention of the students throughout the presentation.”
