Her impact stretches across continents, from the Middle East to North America, Europe, and Africa, making her a truly international change-maker. Recognised by the Black Business Show x HSBC as one of the top 25 black entrepreneurs to watch in 2024, Hayley’s journey began with a deeply personal turning point at age 18, when she faced a significant mental health crisis. This experience transformed her outlook on life and ignited her passion to uplift others, particularly those struggling with mental health, diversity, and inclusion.
Hayley’s ability to share her personal story in a way that resonates with others has led her to speak at prestigious venues like Wembley Arena and Oslo Spektrum. Her message focuses on closing the generational gap, fostering understanding between corporate leaders and Millennials/Gen Z to create stronger, more empathetic workplaces. Her dedication to female empowerment has taken her across the Middle East, where she has led impactful workshops to help female corporate leaders in the MENA region boost their confidence in communication and leadership. Working with companies like Google MENA, META MENA, and MBC, Hayley has contributed significantly to promoting inclusive cultures that encourage women to flourish.
In addition to her speaking engagements, Hayley is also a board member at Wagamama, where she collaborates with the CEO to improve youth engagement and create opportunities for individuals from diverse backgrounds. Her expertise has been sought by both corporate giants and government bodies, and she has worked with top-tier executives and fresh graduates alike. She has spoken at Microsoft HQ, partnered with Unilever, and provided insights to organisations such as JP Morgan, Harrods, and Clifford Chance. Additionally, Hayley has supported initiatives focused on social mobility and youth engagement, advising government leaders and the Commonwealth Secretariat on how best to inspire and involve young people.
Hayley’s workshops, keynotes, and seminars are renowned for their power to captivate and inspire. Her sessions go beyond delivering information—they aim to foster a deep emotional connection with her audience.
