A couple of weeks ago, I had the pleasure of being the Master of Ceremonies [MC] for the 2024 Australian Organic Conference.
Some might wonder how I found myself on a stage in Melbourne in front of key players of the Organics Industry. But it’s quite straightforward really, a) I was invited to do so, and b) I genuinely enjoy speaking and MC’ing at events like this.
Australian Organic Limited first engaged businessDEPOT to help with their accounting and tax work, but I’ve thoroughly enjoyed working with their team on various other projects over the years, including:
- Facilitating strategy workshops for different industry segments
- Moderating conference panel discussions
- Serving as the MC for conferences
- Hosting industry awards nights
- Conducting board strategy sessions
- Assisting with strategic plan revisions
I love helping people with these types of services and I’ve been relishing the opportunity to do more of it lately. I believe the most effective MC’s are those who can keep an event on course while maintaining high energy levels [without making it all about them]. While I’m neither a comedian nor an entertainer, I pride myself on being able to gauge the atmosphere of a room, connect with the audience by focusing on the key topics and themes, and bringing a business perspective, along with my personal insights to the conversation.
Should you know someone in search of an #MC, a #panel moderator, or a #strategy session facilitator, I’d love to hear from you.
Thanks Australian Organic Limited for the opportunity!
