He was received very well ... initially with some surprise as our delegates are not used to humour at financial or government events ... but then they loved him.

Darren did an outstanding job. He was incredibly professional, humorous and got the mood of the event just right. I’d happily ask him back again.

Darren's preparation for the event was meticulous. His ability to take on last minute instructions and to deliver them faultlessly was first rate. Last but not least the touch of humour he used was well received & not over the top.

This was the first time we engaged an MC for our conference dinner. After a long day in conference sessions his wit and sense of humour created a great evening for our awards dinner. This enabled me to sit back and enjoy the evening along with everyone else, as I knew we were in good hands, so thank you!
CEO

You managed to keep our audience alert and energised throughout several intense business sessions. The workshop debrief showcased your interview and facilitation skills, where you made a seemingly difficult task into an easy one using your intelligence, quick wit and intuition.

Having you MC our conference was worth every cent and more. You were a “pick me up” for everyone between sessions, very funny, exciting and full of energy.

Darren Isenberg is the ultimate MC for a conference. His quick wit and charm mask his highly professional preparation that produces a seemless and integrated experience.

I must say that you turned what potentially could have been a slightly dull affair into an up-beat, motivational bonanza.

Darren's brief for our event was a combination of MC and facilitator. He switched between both brilliantly and nailed them. And his summary at the end of the conference was perfect and couldn't have been better if we had scripted it ourselves.
Director – Risk Advisory Services
Pricewaterhouse Coopers

You exceeded our expectations in what were a challenging few days where we needed to address the agenda and content issues on the spot.  You were with us into the early hours of the morning providing input and advice to make sure we addressed some issues of Day 1 to ensure we delivered an outstanding Day 2 of conferencing - we delivered.

Over the years you really have been an integral part of the success of this event. The Price Attack crowd love you and have really embraced you which is testimony of what a great job you do for them. It is a real pleasure for me to deal with someone who is easy-going but at the same time very professional and accommodating. Makes my job so much easier … one less worry. You put a lot of thought and humour into your scripts, manage any last minute requests and changes with a smile and just keep going. All this combined makes you a stand out.

I found Darren to be absolutely charming. He took a lot of pressure off my shoulders and really ran things very smoothly. He was very engaging with the audience and very funny when announcing.
Conference Organiser

Thank you for being such an amazing MC! You really did make the whole event, set the tone beautifully and kept everyone entertained right until the very end. The dedication you put in to preparation (especially given how late the information was coming through to you) was amazing and this shone through on the day.
Event Manager
Sydney Trains

His witty and energetic introductions created the perfect energy for each speaker and he was even brave enough to provide an extremely humorous introduction to our CEO, which was hugely appreciated. His innate ability to seamlessly knit the sessions together, whilst lifting concentration levels whenever they drifted, certainly had an impact on the success of the conference.

Not only does Darren play the more traditional MC role of keeping things on track and managing the energy levels in the room, but he is also engaged in the messages that each presenter is attempting to land, and creates links back to these throughout the conference. Evidence of this was Darren’s preparation going into conference, where he engaged with all presenters, and was crystal clear on the objectives of each session. Darren is a warm, engaging and witty, and I would highly recommend Darren be considered for your conferencing needs.
Sales Director - Pacific
The Wrigley Company

In the past we have used well-known personalities as MC, often at considerable expense – and, apart from being a well-known face, they are in some instances not particularly good MC's. Darren is a professional at what he does and this shows through. We were also impressed at how flexible he was in his work, being highly approachable and being able to ad-lib and cope with last minute changes. In many ways his witty and well researched interludes, between the various sessions proved to be the highlight for the delegates.  We were very impressed with the amount of background work he had done and the way in which he managed to weave his light-hearted comments into the conference content.

The MC at the conference was exceptional. He made what can be a long and tedious day very enjoyable.

Not only was your preparation for the event well beyond our expectations but your handling of the constant schedule changes and some more memorable difficult moments with speakers were handled exceptionally well.
General Manager

PRIA’s national conference was successful on many fronts but mostly because of your immense professionalism and willingness to ensure the event lived up to your high standards – not just ours.
CEO
Public Relations Institute of Australia

By having you as MC, it brought the entire event up to an entirely new level of professionalism. One of the most impressive things was the amount of research you did to make your MCing role work for this particular industry and the delegates at the event. You did it with style and wit, the likes of which we had not experienced before.
