Michael Neaylon is the perfect MC. Intelligent, creative and personable. Spending time to research brands and businesses prior to the event is always a priority and his performance on the day is fluid. We never need to have any concerns about punctuality, appearance or content when Michael is involved, because of his professionalism. And his ability to dress up and become a character, adds an extra dimension to the events that he is involved in.

Rosa Lee, Communication Coordinator | RTA Annual Staff Awards

'We recently engaged Michael Neaylon to conduct speaker training for the RTA’s annual Staff Awards. Michael trained our presenters, who were from all levels of management – from the RTA’s Deputy Chief Executive to general managers. Some individuals were seasoned public speakers, others has never presented at the RTA Staff Annual Awards… We received very positive feedback about Michael Neaylon's training and would not hesitate considering him for future training programs. The comments we received about the training included 'it was very worthwhile,' 'it was an excellent training session, well done,' and 'I could have done with another hour.'
