Founder of The Belle Evolution and Chief Executive Officer at Olive Louise Social
Elena was a valuable and inspiring contribution to The Belle Evolutions February 2022 event.
Her willingness to share her story with authenticity and raw honesty made her an outstanding speaker
on the night. However, it was her effort in providing real and specific tools that provided outstanding
value and the amount of time she took to connect with so many women in business that resonated
with her message, that made her a true highlight of the evening.

Elena has a way with words that is so captivating, the entire room in a busy golf club was silent. Her speech was motivational, powerful and shook many of us to the core. She handled hard questions with grace, and there was more than one teary eye in the room when she was done. She is an inspiration and I would love to see her talk again.

I had the pleasure of seeing Elena at the Logan Chamber of Commerce breakfast on 8th March 2021 for the International Women's Day event. Elena was a guest speaker who captivated the audience with her genuine heartfelt story. It is a story of resilience and never giving up no matter what, through the challenges in her life I thought what a courageous woman to have not only faced adversity through her life but overcome them. Elena spoke of finding her voice and I am sure this inspirational speech will give other women the courage to find theirs. A true champion for women and a fantastic speaker, I highly recommend attending an event where Elena is speaking.

It is with great pleasure that I write of my dealings with Elena Gosse as CEO of Australian Innovative Systems. I met Elana when I was Producing Interactive Business Training resources for Qld Gov. Elena was my Russian case Study, since that project I have worked directly for Elena on 2 separate Productions both of which Elena has Co-Produced and also worked as the Line-Producer and Exec Producer. Her extensive Business Knowledge and her background in Media have made both productions pleasurable experiences. The fact that I am based over 1000km away from Elena was not an impediment and our communications were efficient and productive. Elena has a large team of people working for her and without exception all hold her in high esteem. I am humbled to write this recommendation for Elena and privileged to have gotten to know her as a business colleague and close friend over the 5 years we have worked together. Her dedication and focus make her Business Woman of the Year every year in my eyes.
