To have heard Matina tell her story twice has been an absolute pleasure. Matina's story is just sensational and the lessons she has drawn from her vast experience as a leader in the Australian army are truly inspiring. Matina took the whole room through a powerful and captivating journey of self-reflection, leadership, courage and life challenges. Her world-class delivery is unforgettable one of the best speakers I've heard.
Matina is wonderful, a true professional and just a dream to work with from start to finish. Her presentation and keynote on leadership was at times emotional, but she expertly connected with everyone in the room and was able to segue her unique leadership experience in the Australian military and the UN to the corporate context to inspire our audience of seasoned finance executives. Could not recommend Matina more to anyone wishing to secure an inspiring, keynote speaker on the topics of leadership, resilience and change.
Matina is the most brilliant speaker I have ever heard. Her presentation will have you on the edge of your seat, it will have you in tears, and it gives you such insight into how anyone can overcome the most incredible debilitating injuries. The presentation was the best I have ever experienced, and I have been to so many during my life time. Not once did she ummm. Not once did she refer to notes, not once was there a point where you were not engaged with her totally. Not only was her presentation excellent, Matina is in herself the warmest, approachable, and I would call her a beautiful person in every respect. I would thoroughly recommend Matina for any event, she is so adaptable with her presentation and able to relate to any situation. Her experiences in life would have enabled her to adapt to any situation.
The crowd loved your presentation and there were quite a few emotions flowing. Feedback on your section was superb, with participants rating it the most engaging presentation of the day.
You had our finance executives in a spell... a most fascinating and moving account of a very special life experience. You draw excellent parallels to relevant leadership competencies.
