EVENT MANAGEMENT
My experience of running an event management business gives me a unique skillset whereby I can present a conference, manage the stage as well as give full support behind the scenes as and when it’s needed.
EMERGENCY BACK-UP PLANS
Sometimes things don’t go to plan. Speakers get caught in traffic, creating time in the schedule that needs to be filled or a problem with the mic cuts the sound.
I have a range of back-up plans in place which cover a number of different scenarios to ensure, no matter what happens, the show will go on.
PREPARATION & REHEARSAL
I go through a detailed consultation with every client before each event takes place. Where possible I’m always keen on a dress rehearsal with the stage team, to ensure that the event runs smoothly and to plan.
Hiring a Conference Host for an all-day event is different to hiring a host for the evening. As well as having good stage presence a Conference Host must have excellent stage management, and interviewing skills, as well as be able to manage the agenda throughout the day.
Booking a Conference Host without this experience can lead to the your audience becoming disengaged, Q&A opportunities being wasted and even the event being cut short, because its overrun.
I have the experience as a conference host to make your event a success. I’ll work closely with you to ensure your event runs to time. My experience with interviewing business leaders and A-list celebrities will make for an engaging Q&A without any mishaps.

Q&As EXPERIENCE
Beside from interviewing business leaders and employees at different levels, I’ve interviewed some of the biggest names in Hollywood including Robert Downey Junior, Robin Williams and Jude Law.
Live Q&As are often an essential part of any conference and provide an excellent opportunity for a speaker to share more about their achievements, motivational talk and for the guests to ask questions as well.
A great Conference Host must be prepared with their own questions, but more importantly the Conference Host but be prepared to listen. I’ve been to many events as a guest, where a great follow-up question was missed, because the host didn’t listen to the answer given by the interviewee.
I listen to the people I interview, asking them questions which lead onto answers that forward the overall conversation. I also spend the time before every event to research the people that I’m going to interview, so I can fully engage with them and ask them questions that people want to know the answers to.
