Good to know
What to expect
More than 20 years in marketing sits behind the talk, along with several businesses Marissa built from the ground up. Queensland born and raised, she has spoken at conferences, corporate events and seminars around the country. The style is energetic and built on storytelling, which is what keeps a room with her. But people leave holding something usable: practical strategies for their own work. Topics run across leadership, personal development, innovation, and diversity and inclusion, with humour throughout. She has interviewed some of the country's most influential leaders, and asking the question that shifts someone's thinking is the skill she is known for.
On the day
A hands free microphone is her preference, and a wireless mic works just as well. Marissa moves around while she speaks rather than staying behind a lectern, so a fixed mic on a stand is the one thing that won't suit. Everything else is straightforward.
