Topics for Jordana Borensztajn
- MCing with humour and heart
When Jordana takes the mic as MC, expect way more than just seamless transitions – expect electricity. Drawing on her stand-up comedy roots, extensive media experience, and public speaking expertise, Jordana brings a dynamic mix of humour, originality, and quick wit to every stage she hosts. She doesn’t just introduce speakers – she energises the room. With customised comedy, witty observations, and spontaneous banter, Jordana weaves your event together in a highly professional way that feels fresh, fun, and totally unforgettable.
A master at reading the room, Jordana creates a space where speakers feel supported and delegates always feel included. She gracefully navigates any and all unexpected moments (tech glitches, speaker delays or awkward silences) and turns every moment of chaos into connection, comedy, or both. Jordana’s curious and creative interviewing style opens the space for authentic conversations, effortless engagement, and a vibe that’s both professional and playful – the perfect formula for creating moments that matter, and a conference people talk about for all the right reasons. - The unspoken advantage: Your body language blueprint to decode silent signals
What if the most powerful leadership tool you possess… isn't your words at all? In this immersive keynote, Jordana uncovers the hidden layer of leadership most professionals overlook: non-verbal communication. From micro-expressions to subtle shifts in energy, these silent signals shape perception before you even speak a single word. With her signature blend of humour, communication strategy, behavioural insights, and storytelling, Jordana guides you through the silent language of influence. Every gesture matters: a raised eyebrow, a well-timed pause, the way you enter a room. These details create instant and profound impressions. In this eye-opening session, Jordana decodes the science behind non-verbal cues while showing you how to calibrate your own presence to align with your intentions. You'll walk away with practical tools to sharpen perception, deepen connections, and elevate your presence in every interaction. Because powerful leaders aren't just heard; they're felt the moment they enter the room. - The art of influence: Master the skills to build trust, create rapport and command with presence
True leadership extends far beyond words. It radiates through your presence, your intention, and authentic human connection. In this high-impact keynote, Jordana reveals what modern influence really looks like in today’s world. With powerful insights into human behaviour – and a surprising twist of jaw-dropping mentalism – she brings the principles of influence and persuasion to life, right before your eyes. You’ll witness how your presence, your words, and even your energy silently shape your impact, and how others respond to you.
Blending behavioural science, communication strategy, humour, and her signature electrifying stage presence, Jordana delivers practical tools you can use immediately. You’ll walk away with an understanding of how subtle shifts create profound changes, and you’ll gain powerful and simple strategies to build trust, develop true rapport, connect on a deeper level, and lead with powerful confidence – whether you're in the boardroom, the meeting room, or in everyday conversations. - The magic of innovation: Making creativity and curiosity contagious
Innovation isn’t a buzzword – it’s your competitive edge. And creativity? That’s the magic that powers it. When teams feel empowered to think differently, play boldly, and explore freely, collaboration soars, engagement deepens, and a culture of possibility takes hold.
In this high-energy and interactive keynote, Jordana takes your team on a hilarious and heartfelt ride through her own journey of discovering her inner magician – and reveals how you can uncover your own hidden creative powers. Blending storytelling, comedy, mentalism, and unforgettable magic, Jordana delivers a playful, practical roadmap for cultivating a workplace where fresh ideas come alive, and curiosity thrives. Your team will learn how to ditch default thinking, activate imagination on demand, and meet change with excitement instead of resistance. Jordana shows how a sense of play opens up real problem-solving power, and how infusing joy into our everyday moments not only boosts productivity but also transforms the way we work, creating a massive strategic advantage. Because when creativity becomes culture, innovation isn’t just possible – it’s unstoppable. - Decoding the next generations:
How to create multigenerational harmony (without losing your mind)
Welcome to the modern workplace: Four generations working together under one fluorescent-lit roof, all trying to communicate, with wildly different ideas about what “ASAP” actually means. With Baby Boomers, Gen X, Millennials, and Gen Z all working side by side, it’s no wonder communication gets a little… glitchy. In this high-energy, hilariously relatable, and deeply insightful keynote, Jordana – a proud Millennial who speaks fluent Boomer and Gen Z – unpacks the mindset, motivators, and quirks of each generation so leaders and teams can start to understand each other in order to meaningfully connect and collaborate. You’ll learn simple and practical strategies to better engage young employees, to bridge generational divides, and to build a workplace culture that thrives on collaboration so you can turn confusion into connection. This session doesn’t just shift perspectives. It transforms how we communicate, collaborate, and move forward – and it will arm you with fresh insights, surprising empathy, and the confidence to connect across all age gaps. - Corporate workshop: Present with power and confidence
Powerful communication is the heartbeat of success in sales, leadership, and client relationships. Whether you're leading meetings, pitching ideas, connecting with clients, or presenting on camera, the ability to deliver your message with clarity and charisma isn’t just important – it’s essential. In this high-energy, hands-on, and interactive workshop, Jordana arms you with a dynamite presentation toolkit to pitch, promote, and present your key business messages with confidence, conviction, and flair. You’ll master high-impact techniques to command attention, drive engagement, and deliver your points with precision, so you can truly captivate your audience. You’ll learn how to use your body language to deliver with power, to quickly build rapport and trust, to turn nerves into fuel, and to handle tough questions with grace. You’ll gain the tools to showcase your unique point of difference with absolute confidence and Jordana also dives deep into the art of storytelling, helping you create deep connections and inspire action whenever you’re presenting. Packed with powerful tools and easy-to-apply presentation tips, this session will leave you energised, equipped, and excited to show up as your most confident and impactful self whenever you’re communicating. - Corporate entertainment: Don’t believe everything you see
What if your thoughts weren’t entirely your own? And what if the “impossible” wasn’t just a trick – but a glimpse into the hidden mechanics of human behaviour? In this interactive and wildly entertaining fusion of mentalism, magic, and comedy, Jordana peels back the curtain on the invisible forces that shape your choices, bend your perception, and mess with your sense of reality (all while making you laugh… a lot). With a dazzling blend of psychology, persuasion, and razor-sharp wit, Jordana doesn’t just read your mind – she blurs the line between what’s real and what’s imagined. So get ready to step into a world where logic dissolves, certainty crumbles, and nothing is quite what it seems. Tailored to your audience, rich with humour, and packed with unexpected twists, this show will spark wonder, flip your perspective, and leave you questioning everything... including your own free will. Because what you perceive is only part of the story. And the real magic? It’s what you never, ever saw coming.

Jordana was a highly professional, conscientious and engaging MC. She took our event as seriously as we did! I was impressed with the level of detail she went into in the planning process, and there were more than a few moments she rescued during the conference with her improvisational skills. A great entertainer and a great person.
Venue Management Association
Jordana was an absolute standout as MC at the recent Greenlife Industry National Conference. She brought warmth, wit and high energy to the stage - keeping our audience engaged, our speakers supported, and our program running smoothly from start to finish. Her tailored preparation was next level, and her ability to handle the unexpected with humour and grace made a huge difference behind the scenes. Not only was she hilarious and full of spark, she’s also just an all-round good human. We felt lucky to have her with us and would work with her again in a heartbeat. 10 out of 10. Highly recommend.
Greenlife Industry Conference
We had the pleasure of working with Jordana as the MC for our client’s staff conference, and she was nothing short of phenomenal. Her energy and presence kept the day moving and the audience engaged, and her surprise magic acts added a fun twist to what could have been just another standard conference. What stood out was Jordana’s commitment to creating a tailored experience. She wrote custom jokes and a fully personalised script that aligned perfectly with our client’s brand and culture. Both our team and the client loved working with her, and we look forward to collaborating again.

We recently hired Jordana as a roving magician to celebrate our International Women’s Day event in our Sydney office. To say we were blown away is an understatement. She worked the room wonderfully, capturing our guests and surprising them with her magic. It left the smartest of people dumbfounded about how she managed to do what she just did! We can’t wait to work with Jordana again.
Microsoft
Huge thank you for presenting at our JFP conference. It truly was an absolute pleasure to work with you. Since owning Just For Pets, I have hosted 13 conferences and engaged the services of over 20 keynote speakers, and I can honestly say you are the best presenter we have ever had. Your humour, your ability to make the content relevant to the audience, and the pace at which you presented kept our delegates continuously engaged. Your ability to connect with the audience is at a level I haven't seen before, and watching everyone leave the room enthusiastic and smiling was just brilliant. As important as the content is for our stores to understand, it is how you presented it that made it so easy to learn. There was no delegate who didn't take some key points away that they would implement in their business. I can't thank you enough!
Just for Pets
Jordana listened to what we needed and fit the brief perfectly. She was engaging, dynamic and an absolute pleasure to deal with.

Jordana was sensational, she brought high energy to our event at Abbotsford Convent, and we have had the most amazing feedback from our attendees about her session. Her engagement from our first call was wonderful, she understood what we were looking for and the audience we were talking to, her pre-event preparation was excellent. We will certainly look to engage her again for other events we run.
The Ascott Limited, Australia
A blessing in disguise! An unfortunate cancellation brought you to us at the eleventh hour. It was a big ask. MC a three-day/night conference overseas in two days’ time. How lucky we were that you came to our rescue. And not only that, our delegates rated you as a highlight of the event. You prepared quickly but in detail, you listened so that you could connect speakers and people, you created energy, and you made people laugh. I loved working with you and I look forward to doing so again!

Alpine Shire Council through Engage! Funding (thanks to the Victorian State Government) were fortunate to engage Jordana to speak to our four secondary school students within Alpine Shire. Delivered over three sessions using magic, mentalism, fun and engaging activities, Jordana is energetic, inspirational, informative and has the unique ability to adjust to the audience amazingly. Both students and staff gained an insight of how to take opportunities to go beyond the comfort zones in fun and informative ways. I would highly recommend any schools to take this opportunity to engage Jordana, this is not just a presentation, it is an interactive session that provokes positive thoughts through engagement with all the audience from junior to senior students and staff alike!
Alpine Shire Council
Jordana spoke as a keynote presenter during our OrthoTech Forum this past July. She was amazing – to say the least! The time and effort she put in ahead of the conference to understand the delegates and review their social pages was fantastic as the presentation was then customised to the practices and industry we work in. Jordana provided an energy-filled hour – that was informative, enjoyable and fun. You actually had take-home material that could be implemented and used to improve your social media and help further growth in your business. Feedback from our delegates was outstanding. Her presentation was one of the highest ratings from our feedback survey that offered the most value overall. I would highly recommend you book this lady for your next meeting or event. She will promise NOT to disappoint.

Kyabram Chamber of Commerce and Industry Inc.
An afternoon with the magical Jordana away from the complexity of a major health service and its 2+ years of COVID challenges was awesome. Card games, mystery and fun were all features on the Borensztajn menu; our clinicians and operational leaders filled with the excitement of younger people as they focused on their arts and crafts in the warm sunlight. The few hours spent in the wonder of magic lifted the mood whilst the jokes and laughter flowed throughout the performance. Thank you Jordana for taking us all back to a time when the wonder of magic was the only problem to solve.

The only brief we gave Jordana was to end our 2-day conference with a boom! - And Jordana did just that! She left our audience in a mountain of laughter, wonder and inspiration! Up until the event, Jordana was fantastic to work with - she was proactive, professional, ensured she understood our organisation and our values, and really showed how much she loves what she does. Jordana is full of energy and extremely funny - our staff were fully engaged and energized. Her session entailed useful life tips, arts and crafts that brought to life the child in all of us and a whole lot of magic! She showed us how anyone can learn new skills and become great at them. Thanks a ton Jordana!
OET
We were absolutely delighted with the enthusiasm and genuine joy Jordana brought to our event! The communication prior to the event was a breeze and Jordana met our brief perfectly. It was so refreshing to not be served the same old tired jokes about people, but instead to be wowed, awed and inspired with magic, thoughtful insights and great energy. We were taken on a journey that resulted in a group of people, that are usually quite reserved, running to craft-filled tables trying to build the best Octopus! The resulting laughter and joy was real, and more than one person thanked Jordana personally on the night for her contagious enthusiasm. A memorable experience for everyone. Jordana is inspiring, humorous and a professional entertainer for the modern day. Simply ‘Wonder-Full’. Thank you again for bringing your magic to our Conference.
Advanced Business Manager
Just book Jordana. We wanted a keynote that would bring the energy & fun to an otherwise fairly content heavy conference. Jordana brought this in spades (diamonds, hearts and clubs…) Magic and a message all wrapped up in an entertaining and absorbing package. Our delegates left our conference with a twinkle in their eye and a spring in their step. Jordana was an absolute joy to work with.
Mackay Region Chamber of Commerce
Opportunities to take people out of the hustle and bustle of everyday life provides an opportunity to reflect and recharge our personal batteries. From the moment we engaged with Jordana to set up a session with our teams to do this, we were amazed by the positive vibes, energy and desire to craft an individual session that would exceed our team’s expectation. The energy, engagement, mastery and jokes facilitated by Jordana guided our teams to such a positive and inquisitive space, that they were able to forget the businesses of their everyday lives and reconnect as a team. Thank you Jordana.

Jordana Borensztajn came on board as MC for our conference with only four weeks’ notice. Jordana went above and beyond in that short space of time to contact all event speakers and build a rapport with each of them, something I have not experienced with an event MC before. Jordana was a huge asset to our event and played a major role in its successful delivery.

Jordana Borensztajn comes thoroughly recommended. Her vivacious energy combined with an attention for detail made our event not only a crowd success, but an enjoyable process behind the scenes. She was super professional, very relatable and connected well with our audience. A delight to work alongside.
Growcom
Jordana Borensztajn's energy engaged the audience immediately and took them on a journey; confirming the emotional roller coaster during Covid and acknowledged what we had all collectively achieved together to survive. She then furthered that journey by demonstrating the value in looking at things differently and allowing ourselves time to in effect be present and available. And what could be achieved by this deliberate decision. Jordana continued to engage the audience via her humor and then by her magic tricks to support the message she was relaying. I'm confident attendees went away with the seed planted; to consider thinking about doing things differently in the new world. We felt grateful to have Jordana travel present to us! And everybody who attended loved her :-)

Jordana Borensztajn exceeded our expectations - Key Note speaking online is not the easiest way to keep an audience engaged but she absolutely nailed it.

Jordana Borensztajn was the perfect choice to MC and host the Pyrios Grand Luncheon event and fundraiser in support of Plan International Australia. Jordana expertly tied in the themes of the AFL Grand Final in Melbourne and the ICT sector, making up most of the attendee audience, delivering relatable humour that tapped into social psyche and fabulous banter. She’s authentic and draws on her own experience but importantly researched and prepared for the event to ensure she delivered our key messages, and invested significant attention to the feelings and emotion we wanted to achieve with people in the room. In this regard, she’s sensational. Our event also had a heavy theme, Ending Forced and Early Child Marriage – tough gig for a comedic personality to weave in, however she met this challenge and brought a lightness to the room ensuring everyone was connected and the event remained uplifting… No easy task! Her professionalism meant she could engage, set an atmosphere, build rapport with the crowd, have us laughing and keep us all to run sheet time! We’re thrilled to have worked with her for our event and would highly recommend booking her for any function, we have no hesitation in saying she will thoughtfully prepare and absolutely deliver an entertaining experience for all” !

Beyond Excellent – She was just so great. Our Guests feedback was brilliant, they all thought she did a brilliant job.
Pyrios
From the very first briefing call Jordana has been an absolute pleasure to deal with. In fact, like no other. She really engaged and learned about our group which was evident on the day. Her energy is a breath of fresh air, although her request for me to capture a photo proved difficult. She doesn’t stand still long enough! Getting down amongst the audience is something that particularly works well to keep the group engaged. She was wonderful and I’ll be thinking of ways to have her back in the future, even if on a smaller workshop level.
National Mortgage Brokers
Jordana Borensztajn was a brilliant keynote speaker choice for our WYNnovation Summit. I knew this from the moment we engaged her. She was enthusiastic about the event, eager to learn everything she could about our purpose, vision and audience, and really embraced the opportunity. Jordana presented confidently and in a way that was interesting, keeping the audience’s attention throughout. Jordana was also incredibly generous with her time, staying for the duration of the event chatting to delegates throughout the breaks and answering any questions they had. Taking it upon herself to do some research before the day enabled Jordana to feature businesses that were in the room in her presentation, providing a personalised experience and REAL examples to cement her key messages. As an event organiser it’s a relief when you engage an enthusiastic, well-prepared and organised speaker and that’s exactly what Jordana is, highly recommended!
