You can become a better speaker, deliver powerful presentations, and create energised teams in your workplace. Companies can understand why social media is key to success, define their strategy and social media architecture and extend their reach to engage better with their customers.  After spending 10 years in the Merchant Navy as Shell Tankers first female Deck Officer, Eileen managed a fleet of ships in a container shipping company, moving into IT support, then training and management at a Microsoft Training Provider in London, technical consultancy at HP and technical specialist at Microsoft before leaving to start her own company.

Eileen is a member of BCS, is part of the BCS Strategic panel for Women in IT and is the Chair of Intellect Women in Technology group. However, her life isn't spent entirely at her laptop. Away from work, she makes jam and chutney in awesome quantities, tends her flock of chickens, grows organic vegetables and fruit and races around the countryside in her home built 6.6 litre cobra replica car. Whenever she encounters warmer waters she scuba dives as much as possible to get away from the phone...
