Do others have anything
good to say;-)

I worked with Sallyann during the International Women’s Day event when we invited her to be the keynote speaker and deliver a speech that set out the central theme of the day. She was a dream to work with! It was just so easy. She understood the task on hand immediately, presented the topic in a way that got people immediately thinking and some had a few aha moments during her speech including me.

In my association with Sallyann, I have found her to be a rare combination of a business woman who follows her goals and vision with a relentless drive; and at the same time uncompromising of values of the highest integrity and human growth. Her passion and concern ensure the development of her team and associates is more, if not less than her focus on business goals. Her connect with stakeholders and partners is with an unusual combination of win-win approach, fun, transparency, groundedness and openness.

I have worked with Sallyann and the Growing Leaders Foundation 3 years in a row for our flagship CSR campaign and it has always been a pleasure to work with her. She works with openness to new ideas, passion for impact and embodies all the 21st-century skills she aims to teach through her foundation. She is a great sparring partner and pushes everyone to think outside the box. She goes out of her way to personally support and lift those around her. I am extremely grateful that our paths crossed and hope to see her bring all her projects to life successfully in the coming years.

I loved the book. Overall the quality of the product both paper quality and content was world-class. What struck me most were the insights on every page that tugged on the heartstrings, were inspirational, positive, and a daily reminder of what is really important. It captures messages you want to remind yourself of and your children every day. In fact, we read a page every day after dinner as a family and discuss the relevance to our lives. The audience is anyone who needs a touch of inspiration and motivation
