    TESTIMONIALS

    Dear Lerato,

    What an absolute pleasure listening to you speak on Saturday – thank you so much for sharing your experiences and memories with us. You really are an accomplished speaker! I hope that there will be many occasions where we can collaborate in the future as we try to make the cancer journey a little (…preferably a lot) less awful.

    Dear Lerato,

    We could not have chosen a better Speaker in Lerato Monyatsi.  The content Lerato shared was pertaining to her disability and experiences she encountered within her personal and professional life.   She assisted us in providing insights to colleagues in similar situations, allowing them to bring their vulnerable and authentic selves into the workplace without fear of judgement or criticism.  The experiences she shared provided all colleagues with a view of how to best equip and enable themselves with the right tools and support that the organisation has available for them to empower all to bring their unique contributions and come as they are.

     

    The relay of her experiences provided colleagues with a renewed confidence in disclosing and declaring their disabilities. We received several calls and requests from colleagues for various support and responses to questions relating to different types of disabilities.  We remain grateful for her contribution and encouragement in facilitating the transformation of mindsets of colleagues in similar situations.
