Celebrating Diversity
On 13th September 2007, Celebrating Diversity was officially launched in London at St. Ethelburgas in the City. We had a Bharat Natyam welcome dance by Nilpa and Naytika Shah, readings from the book, a testimonial by Lynne Sedgmore CBE of the Centre for Excellence in Leadership, and a closing Bollywood dance by Anika Shah. Sonal Shah of PWC was a brilliant compere who encouraged everyone to truly celebrate this bold breakthrough and not only buy their own copy, but become active ambassadors. Lynne Sedgmore explained: "This is a creative, timely and insightful book which has complex ideas explained in a very simple and accessible way. It is original and extremely practical and relevant to Britain today. I will order a copy for all my staff." Signed copies were sold and corporate orders placed at the launch.
