Speaking and MCing

As an experienced speaker and MC, I bring my own confidence, warmth and humour to my work.

I always ensure I am well-briefed, and connect well with whoever I will be working with, as well as with my audience. I prepare well, and am flexible and resilient in the face of last minute changes and glitches.

You are the amazing superglue that holds us all together!!

What a fabulous weekend and I cannot thank-you enough for your contribution to what was an outstanding conference.

We have had so much feedback about how seamless the presentation was via Zoom - we had you to thank for holding us together and creating the flow, segueing from one thing to another (ducks feet paddling fast underneath!!) and the calibre of; and congruence between the speakers I think was synchronicity itself.

Last night was a great success. Thank you for your part in it. You are appropriate, funny, lovable and interesting. What a great combo. You also don’t hog the limelight and talk too much… which is greatly appreciated by all!

Well done Pinky on the brilliant management of your MC role yesterday. Your calmness, serenity, warmth, humour and the gentle – yet firm – way you guided us through the day, was a valuable lesson for us all in ‘how to do it right’.
Thank you and BIG THUMBS UP.

You were perfect last night! Thank you for all the preparation you do to make sure that the event is such a success. I realise it must have been very stressful trying to get there but you could never tell – you seemed very ‘in control’ and calm. Those events are always a bit of a whirlwind for me, but I was delighted with how the evening went, and your contribution was a major part of that.
Thank you again,

Pinky Pops In

Pinky Pops In is my one-woman show, where I pop in, tell stories and read my poems.

I have written my own poems over the years, mostly for broadcast on NewstalkZB when I featured a poem every week on Justin du Fresne’s show.

Pinky’s Poems is available by emailing me on pinky@pinkyagnew.com

What an amazing function we had on Thursday! Thank you so much for your wonderful address, your poems, and your humour. I have been inundated with calls saying they hadn’t laughed so much in ages.
My Appreciation.
