ALIQUANTUM Speaker Profile

Sarah Perris

Guest Speaker 20th February 2007

Sarah is one of the UK's most successful and experienced corporate PRs.  After working for many years in the tough automotive industry, she topped her career as Worldwide Communications Director for Bentley Motors.  Her immense personal and professional communications skills  - not to mention her warmth and common sense - have been gathered from working in many cultures around the globe.  When she moved to the Northwest it was to her fifth house, in the third country in less than two years - as a single parent with identical twin daughters who are now nine.

When asked what she thinks is one of the most important aspects of being a woman who runs her own business, Sarah will tell you "Believe in yourself.  Remember that you're not the only one who's scared about the prospects of going it alone, but acknowledge your fear, share it with a like-minded friend or mentor - and use it to positive effect.  Network, network, network and then network some more - there are many different groups out there - use them." 

Sarah Perris is a communications professional with 18 years corporate experience specialising in Presentation and Media training, PR and Internal and External Communications Strategy who now, among other things, shares her knowledge and expertise with other women in business.
