"Julia
Hailes is an inspiring speaker who really brought our seminar
alive with her pithy personal insights, and funny stories, which
she uses to push home important points. Her talk was
well liked by our audience" The Food and
Drink Innovation Network, Food
Ethics Seminar, April 2008
 JUNE
2008 - DUBROVNIK
Where bombs and missiles fell in the early 1990s, I stood
looking at washing lines and cats. Swallows were diving over the
rooftops of Dubrovnik in the evening sun - it was a magical
experience, perhaps all the more so because I was there for such a
short time.
My trip to Croatia was arranged by AISE - the European Soaps and
Detergents Manufacturing trade association. They invited me to
speak at their annual conference for executives in the industry.

written by me and a

are not the answer !
