Testimonials
Carol Guttzeit | HR Managing Director, Slalom Consulting
Hilary has been a keynote speaker at several engagements over the last several years at our company – women’s leadership summits, talent acquisition summits, and sales summits. Every time I have the opportunity to witness her speak, I am inspired on several levels – first, I wish I was an effective, natural, and compelling speaker as she is; second, her ability to connect with and energize every audience is something to behold; and third, she is always thoroughly prepared AND has the ability to adapt on the fly to what is needed in the space. Whenever Hilary is on the speaking program, I know it’s going to be a great session.
Amy Blair | Chief People Officer, Liberty Global
We have partnered with Hilary Blair over the last 6 years at Liberty Global. She has provided executive coaching, trained participants throughout a year longer leadership program and facilitated a great session at our Global Women’s conference. Her energy is infectious and she always inspires and challenges us. We appreciate Hilary’s unique coaching and facilitation style and that she gives actionable techniques that can be used immediately. She creates a supportive and safe space to explore communication and collaborate in a global environment. We always notice changed behavior after her programs – our participants are more authentic and she’s always a highlight in our leadership programs.

Setareh Ziai MD, FRCS | Canadian Women in Medicine Co-Founder & Past-President
This year, we invited Hilary Blair to join us for the Canadian Women in Medicine Wellness Conference for the second time. In 2021, she gave a keynote to an audience of over 1200 women physicians. Despite the conference being held virtually, Hilary had everybody at the edge of their seats, participating, laughing and learning things we had never heard of before: such important things that everyone should know about while navigating life as a professional woman. The feedback we received was so incredibly positive that we invited her back this year, for a longer session: a deeper dive on this life-changing topic. Her workshop promptly sold out, with a waiting list. Hilary is truly an unparalleled speaker. Her passion, her animation, her delivery and her approachability make her truly unique. We loved having Hilary as part of our family: she is one of a kind.
