“As a public personality and long-time entrepreneur who speaks often, I applaud Tadia Rice! Her ability to inspire and manage an audience was reflected during her presentation on Gender Equality presented to the Honolulu Pacific Federal Executive Board of the US Government. Her content was not only reflective of the challenges facing our society, but Tadia provided real world options for women and men who want to build parity and opportunity for themselves and their children. Tadia can speak on many topics of wide-ranging interests, from leadership and business management to Hawaiian Aloha and geopolitical issues. Whatever the issue, you can be sure she will speak from her heart and her broad range of experiences. I recommend and endorse Tadia for her enduring efforts to promote equality and human rights for all. She will definitely enhance and enrich your any program.”

“Nuflow recently recruited Tadia Rice as keynote speaker for our Annual Licensee Conference. We received only positive feedback from the delegates – they appreciated Tadia’s hands-on approach, extensive business knowledge and ability to relate to a diverse range of sectors. She had a real impact on them, and they have taken away some great knowledge to apply to growing their business. Tadia has a wealth of knowledge and experience, she will not just educate you, she will take you on a journey. It was a pleasure working with Tadia Rice!”

“Your remarks and presentation at our Honolulu-Pacific Federal Executive Board’s 2013 LEAD Conference were enlightening, entertaining, and highly relevant to the theme of empowering women. Your articulation of the challenges of reaching gender equality, and of ensuring that members of the next generation are reached, was particularly well received. Following Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard was no easy task, but your participatory and engaging style, as well as the details presented on your global experiences with women’s issues, was a very valuable contribution to the event. Thank you so much for your generosity in supporting this important training event to the Federal workforce.”

“Tadia, you delivered one of the more memorable presentations I’ve ever experienced when you were our keynote speaker during the 2013 Women’s Equality Day celebration at the Ford Island Conference Center. The lead delivery by the Honorable Tulsi Gabbard was quite impressive. I wondered, ‘How does one follow such a sound speaker and presentation?’ As evidenced by the interaction and praise from the audience, your presentation blew the roof off of the building… it was awesome! You were introduced as a motivational leader with a lifetime experience as an agent of change. This was an understatement. The very personal manner in which you interacted with the audience… coupled with your meaningful message concerning men and women working as one, breaking down the long-standing discrepant paradigm of women being less valuable than men… touched everyone in the audience. It is with high regard that I say it was a pleasure to be in attendance and experience the impact you have on audiences.”

“Tadia Rice’s keynote presentation of Lead With Aloha was uplifting, informative and refreshing. It should be shared with all people.

“Lead With Aloha, the keynote talk by Tadia Rice at the Live2Lead Conference, was impressive. She took the esoteric understanding of Hawaiian Aloha, so often misunderstood, and made it understandable for the western mindset. If more people in the world could learn Tadia’s explanation of the Aloha spirit, especially as it relates to professional development, business, industry – all aspects of work and life, it would surely improve our entire society. I’m encouraging everyone I know, especially young women and men who question their leadership ability, to pursue it with Aloha because there is such a need for it. Tadia’s message that you can never neglect your own leadership capability was quite informative. She gives everyone the permission to lead unencumbered, fearless, with Aloha. If you feel it you have to follow it!”

“Having been born and raised in Hawaii, I was amazed that I didn’t understand Aloha. So many of us flippantly use the word only for hello, goodbye and love, but what Tadia Rice shared was quite impressive. Lead With Aloha gave me a deeper understanding that it’s often more about what is not said than what is. My big take away was Tadia’s explanation about servant leadership, and how mastering that with Aloha gives us the ability to strengthen our entire team, no matter what industry we’re in.”

“Thanks so very much for an excellent presentation during our LEAD conference on gender equality. You made our seminar the total hit it was! You are a class act and good at what you do! You know your subject and enjoy what you do. It is infectious! I enjoyed how you provided valuable and informative information in such an entertaining way. Mixing humor with facts got your points across to the audience in a wonderful way. I also enjoyed the way you interacted with the audience. It brought the message home when you see others validate and back up what you are saying. I look forward to hearing you again!”

“In the field of communications Tadia Rice is peerless. Every occupation has persons that can multi task, and Tadia is the complete package. She is well traveled in her profession, from the West Coast of the United States to the East Coast, to Johannesburg in South Africa and now to her abode in the Hawaiian Islands. Tadia has always devoted herself to the communication of higher principles in the world, whether with her two CDs of Tahirih or her book about the women of post-genocide Rwanda. Wherever Tadia has lived she has embraced, and been embraced by, the culture of the people that live there. She is one of those people who is easily assimilated into a culture because of her own outgoing and friendly attitude, and because of her acceptance of the principle of the oneness of the human race, which is cardinal to the Baha’i Faith. Her talk on the Spirit of Aloha and the Baha’i Faith reflects all that she stands for.”
