Testimonials
Tate is a truly inspirational young man. Not only does he use his experience of transition to spread awareness, he is a fabulous speaker, engaging the audience and driving real change. It’s been a pleasure to both speak on panels with him, and also to have him as a panellist at my own events.
Elizabeth Rimmington, Barclays
Tate has been an exceptional and informative consultant to work with - candid and honest about his thoughts and experiences, educative with his suggestions - and we could not recommend him enough. Whether it's to ask for a quote for an article, for Tate to speak or host a panel, or simply for a point of view on particular work, we hold his contributions in high esteem.
George Wright, myGwork
His approach of combining his personal insight and experience with practical advice and guidance made for a session that felt both genuine and extremely helpful. He also took the time to engage thoughtfully with us beforehand in order to ensure that the session was tailored for our audience. We had a lot of positive feedback from our colleagues who joined Tate’s session, and would highly recommend Tate for any audience.
Patrick Vickery, Heathrow Airport
Collaborating with Tate is always such a pleasure from the start. His knowledge and passion is evident as he confidently delivers with care and sensitivity. Our community clearly appreciates his natural charisma, charm and like-ability as it makes them feel at ease and more open to curiosity and learning something new.
