One of the Most Inspiring Female Motivational Speakers in India
Jillian Haslam is an international motivational speaker renowned for her passion to lift others up and inspire real, positive change.
Born in Kolkata, India to British parents, Jillian spent much of her childhood in the slums of Kidderpore. Life was a struggle for daily survival, which would see her lose four of her siblings to poverty and malnutrition.
Despite the hardship and harrowing experiences she endured from a young age, she was determined to overcome her adversity and transform her family’s fortunes.
Fast-forward several years later, and the young girl who
used to shelter under a staircase for the night would go on to achieve the impossible. After enjoying a high-flying career in some of the world’s biggest banks, she later relocated to London where she went on to share her story with the world as an international motivational speaker and corporate coach.
Today, Jillian has emerged as one of the most renowned women motivational speakers in the field of resilience.
Some of the areas she is hired to speak on include:
-
Coping with challenges
-
Navigating change and uncertainty
-
Mental toughness and activating a resilient mindset
-
Leveraging potential
-
Team dynamics
-
Leadership resilience
Do you deliver motivational talks in India?
Despite relocating to London, Jillian maintains close ties with her country of birth. As a renowned global motivational keynote speaker, India remains one of her most popular locations.
Besides giving motivational talks and keynote addresses to companies and conferences in India, uplifting the lives of the less fortunate is something Jillian has always been determined to do. She is a humanitarian with multiple active charity projects in Kolkata that seek to empower various disadvantaged groups in the community.
You will therefore often find her shuttling between India and the UK.
As one of the top female motivational speakers in India and globally on the topic of resilience, she believes resilience is a developable skill and a skill anyone can cultivate. This is the message she wishes to share with individuals and organisations using her platform as a speaker and coach.
Her unique life story is an inspiration on its own, but Jillian is living proof that indeed we can achieve whatever we put our mind to if we want it badly enough and are willing to take the necessary steps to get there.
Changing mindsets to transform lives
Knowing how to ride through challenges is a key ingredient for success, both at an individual and organisational level. It is possible to have clear goals, an actionable plan and all the intention, but without resilience, achieving these goals can be a stretch.
Resilience instils in us a winning mindset we need to succeed. Every individual experiences setbacks in life, personal or professional. The same applies to organisations. Knowing how to ride through the storm regardless of the size and shape the clouds come in is a huge asset.
She is a strong believer that success largely lies in an individual’s mindset or organisation’s approach to challenges. Because she has been there and seen it. And over a 14-year speaking and coaching career, she has worked with people and companies dealing with different challenges to understand that this – often – is the distinguishing factor between succeeding and failing.
Jillian employs a refreshingly honest approach and relatable experiences, with her motivational talks serving as a “spark” for transformation. Her speeches are sobering and doused with insights relevant to the audience and challenges you’re facing.
For organisations, events or groups looking for impactful women motivational speakers, the English speaker with Indian roots cannot come highly recommended enough.
