Speaking from Experience

Speaking from Experience brings together a small group of influential New Zealand professionals to deliver five concise, high-impact talks shaped from their own experience.

Following the talks, we’ll invite our speakers back on stage for a relaxed panel discussion, to unpack the preparation and process that brought each presentation to life.

Speaking from Experience isn’t only about what happens on stage, it’s about what it took to get there.

What to expect:

• A selection of high-impact talks from five trained speakers

• An informal discussion on how each speaker prepared, rehearsed, and overcame fear

• Practical techniques you can apply immediately to improve your own speaking

• Insights into how great speakers shape ideas, structure messages, and land impact

• Networking over drinks and nibbles before and after the event

Speaker line-up:

1. Toby Beaglehole (CEO, The Royal New Zealand College of General Practitioners)

2. Chris Pooley (Head of Sales, The Instillery)

3. Amanda Morrison (CEO, icollect and Guardian Credit Services)

4. Jennifer Jones (Marketing Manager, Goodman Fielder)

5. Barry Williams (General Manager, Answer Services) 

Whether you’re a new or experienced speaker, a leader, or simply curious about improving your communication skills, this event will show you how it’s done.
