Change & Resilience Expert to Inspire Corporate Events, Teams & Conferences
Banking Keynote Speaker: About Financial Services Speaker Jillian Haslam
Looking for a banking keynote speaker? Well, finding good financial services speakers can be a tricky sport.
On one hand, many public speakers do not have proper lay of the land as far as the financial sector goes: they may be great at giving speeches, but they are not industry experts. On the other hand, industry experts may have the knowledge and experience that comes with the territory, but many fall short on the delivery aspect: they are dull and uninspiring.
Until Jillian Haslam.
​
Jillian weaves decades’ worth of experience in the banking sector with a rousing delivery perfected as a professional speaker that will breathe life into your corporate meeting or conference.
Before she became a banking keynote speaker, she enjoyed a 23-year career as a banker, working for some of the top institutions in the industry, including RBS and Bank of America.
A diligent worker, she rose through the ranks, going from retail to executive where she merged passion and career to head charity foundations through the various leadership roles that she held, including President of BofA’s Charity & Diversity Network in India.
A published author and resilience expert today, she spends her time providing coaching and motivational speaking services to banks and financial institutions across the world.
Jillian has 14 years of experience as an inspirational business keynote speaker. Most of those have been spent as a speaker for the financial services sector. The varied experience and expertise in the banking and speaking industries makes her the ideal candidate for banks and financial institutions looking to bring in a top finance speaker.
