Spread Your Fire
Become the kind of presenter people remember. Learn to captivate, persuade, and inspire — whether you are on stage, in the boardroom, or on camera. Taught by a 35-year broadcaster and TV presenter who has coached All Blacks, Chiefs, and Crusaders players on their communication.
Why Learn From Mark?
After 35 years as a broadcaster and TV presenter, Mark doesn't just teach presenting — he knows presenting. He has spent decades learning what connects with an audience and what falls flat.
He has worked with All Blacks, Chiefs, and Crusaders players on their communication skills, as well as NPC teams, government agencies, schools, corporates, charities, and tradespeople. Whether it's a team of five or a conference of five hundred, Mark brings the same energy, insight, and practical know-how.
Practical, Energetic, Real-World
Forget death-by-PowerPoint workshops. Mark's training is built on real-world broadcasting experience and his OPEN FLAME communication techniques. You will be on your feet, practising, and getting feedback from the very first session.

"It was perfectly pitched, insightful and connected really well with the team. It definitely changed the vernacular in the group and made the other tasks more interesting as we observed the different coloured flames working together. Everyone rated the session really highly, and the consensus was that it was one of the best sessions we've had."
