Testimonials

Zoé's expertise in this area was evident throughout the entire process. Her workshops were engaging, insightful, and tailored specifically to our team's needs. I appreciated her attention to detail and willingness to go above and beyond to ensure that our team felt heard and supported.

Spark & Co were able to step in for us after a last-minute cancellation. Zoé quickly understood the brief and facilitated a session for us that resulted in the conversations we were hoping to have, and a product that we can use to progress our people’s vision

I cannot stress how valuable these sessions have been. I have enjoyed them enormously and learnt so much more about being a whole-hearted ally. Thank you so much for sharing your personal experiences. The visceral reaction I had to your stories was a real eye-opener for me - to get just a snippet of understanding of the lived experience of your community. Thank you. Love you work, and hope this is not the last!

I also wanted to say a big thank you to you all for organising the pronouns session for us. It was received really well – I heard lots of positive feedback on what a great, engaging session it was and how informative Zoé was. Thanks to you all for pulling this together; and especially to Zoé for her time and generosity in sharing with us.

You won’t regret hiring Zoé and her business Spark & Co.  Zoé’s experience and knowledge, along with her amazing humanity make her one of the best people to innovate in the inclusion space.  Zoé is a spark of pure joy and she is able to work with groups that were once disparate and bring them together – a rare thing in today’s world.

I am thrilled to recommend Zoé from Spark & Co for her outstanding contributions to the Diversity and Inclusion event we hosted in July. 

Zoé presented to the audience of over 250 HR professionals as a subject matter expert on Staff Led Networks specifically focussing on the topic of how Staff Led Networks can contribute to Cultural Wellbeing, Zoé consistently provided a deep understanding of the complex issues faced by both networks and organisations in supporting inclusivity.

Her expertise in Staff Led Networks inspired the audience to view Staff led Networks differently, with tips on how they play a pivotal role in shaping our organisational culture and provide a platform for diverse voices to be heard.

Without reservation, I highly recommend Zoé for her invaluable expertise and dedication to driving positive change.

We used Zoé to cover Governance of our Committees and Boards, focussing on effective agendas and Chairing. A pretty dry subject. Zoé made it interesting and even fun. Those of us with years of experience or those with very little, all learned a great deal in a safe and supported environment. We can't recommend Zoé more highly.
