Testimonials

"Being close to so many senior leaders gave me a confidence boost and insider knowledge!"

"The programme was really impactful & has helped me grow as a person"

"I unlocked my potential to be a leader and was helped to improve my public speaking, presentation and networking skills"

"The senior leadership in OVO displayed a great deal of humility. They were very approachable and really made each and everyone of us feel very welcomed. It was also a very insightful day because it was my first formal interaction with the energy sector so I learnt a lot about OVO’s plan to Net zero."
