Do you need an award winning young entrepreneur to inspire
audiences at your next event?
Our director Yvette Adams is an experienced and inspiring speaker who shares her message with passion and enthusiasm. Good at evaluating an audience within minutes and delivering relevant knowledge at the right level that they can pick up and run with as well as encouraging plenty of interactivity, Yvette is regularly called on to speak at events locally, nationally and internationally, or to be interviewed by, or contribute to a range of media.
The Creative Collective is Yvette's third start-up company which she has with no money down, built with a staggering average quarterly growth rate and no staff but instead a growing team of international contractors.
These stellar results were achieved after only arriving to Australia two and a half years ago, amongst single-handedly self-publishing a novel and securing a nationwide distribution deal for it, regularly being called on to be a guest speaker, and regularly running educational events for both clients and members of the public.
Amazingly she achieved this impressive list of accolades all in one calendar year whilst completing a certificate IV in Small Business Management, working out at least three times per week for a minimum of one hour, being the main carer to her three year old son, AND having her second child, a baby girl in January!
Her efforts were rewarded in September 2007 when she was named the Queensland Small Business Champions Young Entrepreneur. She has also been a finalist in numerous other local, state and national business awards and has some very exciting plans for the future.
