Hear from Our Coaches

  • "Enactus events always leave you feeling inspired and energised! The quality of thought, discussions and energy from the students is fantastic! "

    Amanda Saker | BDO

  • "What a privilege it is to work for SAP who support Enactus UK & Ireland allowing space for students to invoke a sustainable positive change to this world and opportunity for me to mentor them! And a massive thank you to Enactus for all the support throughout the year of providing the tools and confidence to be a coach."

    Alicja Pietkun | SAP

  • “Always amazed by the great ideas and drive the students showcase. I learn while helping them with the ideas and the future plans that they work on. We learn on what it takes to interact, groom, learn from young talent. And they help us with reverse mentoring.”

    Anand Mishra | SAP

  • “I enjoy learning from the Enactus students every year, it is a two way street for me. I can help them with my experience and I get to experience what is important to the younger generations and consider how that will shape all of our futures”

    Hannah Lindsey-Clark | SAP

  • "It was so refreshing and inspiring to see the passion from the students during the coaching clinic. The thoughts on business models, commerciality and social impact really shone through. It is a privilege to be able to support the teams and as well as mentoring them, I am gaining such value in return from enhancing my own knowledge and skills."

    Marc Vincent | Sodexo

  • “Volunteering with Enactus was most rewarding. Working alongside passionate and innovative students gave me the opportunity to contribute to meaningful projects. I witnessed firsthand the student’s dedication to creating social and economic impact in their communities. I was able to share my knowledge which gave the students new insights. Their enthusiasm was refreshing! The experience also helped push me out of my comfort zone & develop critical soft skills like communication in a larger unknown audience. Volunteering with Enactus was more than just giving back, it was a mutual learning experience that left me feeling empowered and motivated. I would highly recommend this opportunity to anyone looking to grow while contributing to positive change.”

    Danielle Walsh | Wells Fargo
