In this talk, Collette Philip, brand strategist, founder and passionate advocate for social justice will share her experiences and tips on how to drive change from within - even if you feel like your voice doesn't count or you are too small to make a difference. Anita Roddick said 'If you think you're too small to have an impact, try going to bed with a mosquito in the room.'. This talk is all about how to be more mosquito - especially when it comes to the biggest global issues of our time.
