HISTORIAN of generational evolution and contemporary values
The life-cycle is transforming in the 21st century.
We are speeding up childhood, delaying adulthood, denying middle-age, redefining old age, even seeking to dodge death.
We are all living longer but we are also now younger for longer.

What People Are Saying
“Eliza did a fantastic session at our relationship manager offsite – talking about the different views, attitudes and opinions of multiple generations. Eliza is an expert and highly engaging speaker and her subject matter is vital for all businesses to grapple with if we’re to adapt to ever more complex times.”
— David Durlacher, CEO, Julius Baer International Ltd
“Eliza presented to our London partners on navigating a multi-generational workforce. The talk was incredibly engaging with content clear, concise and informative. The feedback from the partners was uniformly positive with a number remarking that it was the best presentation that they had attended in years! I can’t recommend Eliza highly enough”
- Jason Glover, London Managing Partner, Simpson Thacher
“ Eliza has engaged our key leaders at all levels and in all sizes of groups; from one or two to six or seven hundred. She naturally takes people with her, makes them think again and come away talking and acting. At our AGM she was able to hold the attention of 700 people in the last session of the day. At a time when other presenters would have lost their audience figuratively and physically, Eliza engaged, entertained and educated. Our franchisees, managers and suppliers left as enlightened about their own families as they were about the opportunities and imperatives for our business”
- Alastair MaCrow, CEO McDonalds UK
