Jessica Hampson, Chairwoman
I have worked with Akil for many years now, I first followed his impressive career online and instantly knew he would be the right fit for our forward thinking, dynamic business. Akil has been a huge influence for positive change within our law firm in terms of culture, resilience, diversity, engagement, inspiration, sound boarding, mental health and climate assessment. Akil has been an external ambassador for our law firm and I would highly recommend other businesses to engage with Akil and his very multi-talented skill set.
Molly Vickers, Senior Comms and Marketing Executive
Akil is a fantastic speaker and is super inspiring and engaging. He shares valuable insights with humour, and is very good at engaging a broad audience and relating to each and every person. We'd love to work with him more in the future!
Bridget Tatham, Partner
Akil is one of those people you meet in life, and wish you’d known them at the start of their journey. Because you just know that they will have a positive impact in your life and the life of others. He’s authentic, open and vulnerable in his words, and inspiring in his actions. For our REACH mentees he is the role model they and others like them need to hear from. Akil speaks truth to power underrepresented talented people on their journey in life and law. An engaging and challenging speaker, who I will return to time and time again.
