Official Testimonials

Mary Aiken is regularly booked to engage audiences at events, read their latest feedback below:

“Both were excellent and thought-provoking. The conversations in our business on the back of the sessions yesterday have only just started, but I can tell from catching up with a few people that they will continue for some time. It undoubtedly raised the profile of security in the business and reinforced the role of humans in everything that’s going on. Mary and Toby complemented each other extremely well and I’m grateful for the time before and after the sessions as much as the session itself. My head is still buzzing and it’s going to take me a while to digest it all”
