KATARINA SKOBERNE
Katarina’s first professional gig was interpreting for reporters in a conflict zone. She uses that experience, two decades in business, and seven years presenting and producing a prime weekly television show in her coaching practice.
While still at university, Katarina helped start an advertising agency that soon became part of an international network and later co-founded a disruptive advertising business that she took to a global presence.
She spoke for a live audience of thousands at the age of thirty and has practiced every method she teaches in hundreds of presentations. She has worked with leaders across Europe and the US to deliver speeches ranging from TEDx talks to large conference talks to media appearances and internal presentations – live and remotely.
She also provides workshops to train groups as they get started on their leadership journeys. She is conversant in six languages and often supports international leaders on clarity and impact in English. Her most valuable learning comes from the privilege of starting from scratch after the closure of her company in 2009.
Katarina still loves giving talks and after three decades in the business is still a media addict. Seeing people open doors in their minds and helping them adopt skills to enjoy interacting with audiences never gets old. She is always looking forward to the theater, hearing people speak, and laughter – now, more than ever.
The Daily Telegraph named her one of the 1000 most influential British business people.
