It’s Official: Britain’s Answer to Oprah Has Arrived!

Us Brits have certainly been taking the world by storm this year, with artists – such as Ed Sheeran, Sam Smith and Paloma Faith – scooping some of the world’s top awards this year.

And we’re set to hit the global headlines once again, with one of the world’s hottest rising stars – and Britain’s equivalent to Oprah Winfrey – receiving one of the self-help industry’s highest accolades this weekend.

Gina Battye – who competed with some of the industry’s best-known speakers from around the world – was crowned ‘Speaker of the Year’ at the highly-prestigious Association of Professional Coaches, Trainers and Consultants (APCTC) after wowing the judges (which included some of the world’s leading coaches, trainers and consultants) with her down-to-earth, witty and authentic approach.

The star – who combines Oprah Winfrey’s wisdom, with lots of motivation, inspiration and humour sprinkled on top – is renowned for her work as a spiritual teacher, best-selling author and motivational guru, and is one of the UK’s leading public speakers.

The highly prestigious black tie event – which is considered to be the ‘Oscars’ of the training, consulting and coaching industry – took place on March 27^th, and attracted a record-breaking number of attendees (including some of the world’s most highly-respected speakers, writers and coaches) this year.

The award is one of the industry’s most highly coveted and respected accolades, and is set to take the Yorkshire speaker’s profile to even greater heights this year.

Commenting on her award, Gina says:

“I feel so honoured and humbled to be awarded Speaker of the Year. It is my mission to change the way people think so they can lead their life and master their potential. Being awarded Speaker of the Year demonstrates the impact my work is having around the globe.”
