The Impact Showcase

The Impact Showcase welcomes leaders, founders, creatives, healers, therapists and anyone in the business of making a positive difference, to connect and celebrate the Impact our work makes. Everyone who attends is invited to share their Impact Story!

Meet Shehnaaz Latif, the founder of The Impact Showcase

Hi, I’m Shehnaaz

I’ve noticed that we rarely take the time to celebrate the impact our work makes!

When I searched for a space where people gather to share their unique contributions in the world and to speak about the positive difference their work makes, I didn’t find what I was looking for so I created The Impact Showcase.

At the heart of this event is a the desire to enable everyone to connect as people first and then, by telling our stories of success, we celebrate our work wins, without comparison.

The result: high vibrations and a deep sense of joy that together we have recognised the collective good our work has made.

For 23 years, my work as a consultant, trainer and facilitator of impact practice with UK-based charities and funders has really helped me to listen and learn about the amazing work we all do and I will continue to support anyone whose purpose is to make a positive impact to collect, celebrate and communicate their impact.

About The Impact Showcase

This event is for leaders, creatives, founders, directors, CEOs and business owners who are impact focussed and would like to share their wins and worries along the path of transformational work.

What we will be doing is taking time to celebrate the impact of our work and highlight the difference our work makes to the clients, service users and customers we serve.

Yes….. it’s a showcase so you can take the stage
