Kim van Kets is one of SA’s most compelling and inspiring public speakers. She delivers substance with grace, humour, Intelligence and most importantly, the power of personal lived experience. As convener of the Daily Dispatch and University of Fort Hare’s series of public dialogues I staged 120 speaking events over 10 years featuring top SA and international thought leaders, including former Public Protector Thuli Madonsela, analyst Moeletsi Mbeki, Deputy Judge President Dikgang Moseneke, ConCourt Judge Albie Sacks and global arms trade expert and former politician Andrew Feinstein. As a public speaker Kim van Kets easily holds her own among the best of the best. As a motivational speaker she leaves you with take-away. Hers is a voice that deserves to be made much, much louder.
