Public speaking
Off the water, Emma spends her time delivering inspirational speeches to senior businesspeople about overcoming challenges and applying her learning as well as the attitude and mental resolve that she attributes her success to in the workplace.
Emma is always approached to talk about her story and her path to becoming World and Paralympic Champion. However, for Emma, it is not about her ‘gold medal story’, it is about managing change and harnessing your strengths as a team or individual to define your success.
Emma’s experiences with adversity form the foundation of her speeches, but by no means does it limit them. She shares how she has made her disability her ability, by owning her day-to-day mindset alongside her experiences of performing under pressure, and the understated significance of the team behind the team, despite her triumphs in an individual sport.
“Emma is amazing and truly an inspiration as well as a fantastic speaker! Through her ability to relate her amazing achievements (which are nothing short of phenomenal) to everyday life she really connects well with the audience. Her willingness to be so open and honest is refreshing”
