"We recently had the privilege of welcoming Sue to PKF Smith Cooper to conduct sexual harassment training face to face for our management team, and a webinar for those at Assistant Manager level and below. Sue's expertise in employment law, combined with a clear and engaging approach, made the session invaluable. Sue encouraged open discussion, provided real life case examples, and equipped our senior management team with the knowledge and tools needed to create a safe and respectful workplace across all offices at PKF Smith Cooper. The training was not only informative but also thought-provoking, reinforcing our commitment to maintaining a culture of professionalism and integrity. I would highly recommend Sue to any organisation that is seeking effective and impactful workplace training. Thank you again Sue!"
