We are absolutely thrilled to announce that Dr. Louise Mahler, one of the most sought-after speakers in leadership communication, will be joining us as a keynote speaker at this year’s PCOA Conference 2024: Accelerate at The Star Brisbane!

Whether you're a PCO, in-house meeting manager, corporate planner, or exhibitor, this is a session you simply cannot afford to miss. Did you know we can all lead even if we don’t have the title ?

Why You Can't Miss This Session

Here’s a question for you: have you ever been sitting in a committee meeting, meeting with a client, or even eyeing up a competitor and thought, “They don’t seem all that important, I know they are a highly successful leader, but they just don’t seem like one?” Imagine if they’d had just one session with Dr. Louise Mahler—not only would they be a leader, but they’d present like one too!

Or maybe you’ve encountered the opposite: a nasty past boss or a know-it-all supplier—someone with the title of leader who just doesn’t seem to own it. Perhaps they don’t carry themselves with the respect or authority you’d expect. Leadership isn’t just about how you look; it’s about how you communicate, connect, and inspire. And that’s exactly what Dr. Mahler will show you.

What You’ll Learn

Dr. Mahler's sessions go far beyond appearance. She teaches the full spectrum of leadership—how to use voice, presence, and behaviour to not only lead with authority but also inspire trust and confidence. Her keynote will provide deep insights into what it really takes to lead, offering you practical techniques to apply immediately, no matter your role.

Her tools are not just about theory—Dr. Mahler’s expertise is grounded in real-world application, and her delivery is both interactive and highly engaging. You will learn things about leadership that you’ve never considered before and walk away with strategies that will change the way you interact, communicate, and lead. Plus you are guaranteed of a laugh.
