Natasha Coughlan

Keeping a full-day program on time is a big part of what Natasha Coughlan offers as a corporate MC. She handles speaker introductions, the changeovers between sessions and the audience interaction in between, and she can tell when the energy should go up and when people need pulling back to the task. Her background is in business, wellness and performance coaching, and she also speaks on mental wellbeing and high performance in business, women's health and hormones, and resilience and future-focused leadership. Half-day hosting covers up to four hours and a full day up to eight, both with a briefing beforehand to line up the run sheet. She moderates panels and Q&A, and hosts hybrid conferences for an in-person audience and a livestream at once. It suits professional development days, leadership events and health and wellness programs. Brisbane-based, she works nationwide.
