“You were brilliant, Oscar! I think you created a really safe and relaxed space to discuss some pretty complex and tricky topics. As someone who is able to keep out of many of the legalities of these situations, a lot goes over my head, but you made it accessible and interesting. I know you’ll have added so much value to those of us in the room yesterday.”
“It was great to meet you, Oscar, and thank you for your clear breakdown of what is such a complex and contentious issue. Main takeaway from the day – No, you can’t say anything and keep out of it!”
