I regularly do paid speaking appearances for industry gatherings and functions. I prepare a 30-40 minute powerpoint presentation aimed at a specific audience with a specific message and then take questions. The industry body or council or corporate can then use that presentation in any of their publications and on their website.

My presentations are often focused on the global and New Zealand economies or on banking and finance. I often cover the residential property market and monetary policy. One other topic I'm asked to talk about is social media and the growing power and usefulness of blogs, Twitter and Youtube.

Today I spoke to an audience of about 100 delegates to the New Zealand Chemical Industry Council about the need for economic reform in New Zealand. The powerpoint I presented is below. I have also included below recent presentations to other bodies.

If you're interested in me presenting to a function or event you are organising, feel free to email me at bernard.hickey@interest.co.nz or call me on mobile 021 866 051.
