  • Maria embodies innovation in her sessions - She is very creative, collaborative, tech-savvy and engaging to listen to and partake with. She always takes the brainstorming / hackathon to a deeper level with her questions and continuous support for each participant and team, and it is amazing to see what comes out of even very short sessions when Maria is guiding the collaboration. 10*s for Innovation with Maria Duloquin

  • Mira ran a presentation entitled "Innovatiovation Through Experimentation" for a group of HR professionals. They felt that - in addition to being extremely interesting - this talk will help them add value to their respective businesses as there were a lot of take-away points. I strongly recommend this speaker to anyone who would like to take a step back and look at his/her business from different angles to see what and how can things be improved. Maria is full of tools and solutions in this regard!
