Allie Mooney CSP
As a recipient of many prestigious awards through NSANZ Auckland there is no doubt that NSANZ have contributed to my success as a professional speaker.
The stimulating Monthly meetings, the learning, and the sharing of ideas on how to run a successful speaking business has all added to my story NSANZ is very unique that we are competitors of one another, yet we champion each other with great fervour.
The CSP designation is an award that only 5 other New Zealanders have and received. (Only 750 worldwide). Buyers of a conference speaker can be very confident, and reassured they are getting a true professional for their event.

"I highly commend NSANZ to anyone considering a career in Professional Speaking... I travel 3 hours from my hometown of Rotorua to attend the monthly NSANZ meetings in Auckland and the NSANZ Professional development series, the Speaker Boot camp and any other events that my Eagles (Mentors) recommend.
Eagles are my mentors and speaking of Eagles, my NSANZ membership has enabled me to mix with the best of the best in the Speaking Profession. Through NSANZ I have been privileged to meet and learn from outstanding professional speakers from Australia, Canada, New Zealand, America and England.
I encourage you to seize this opportunity of a lifetime in the lifetime of the opportunity and make the commitment to join NSANZ. You owe it to yourself."

"It took me a considerable amount of time and effort to get my CSP designation but I can safely say that it's been one of the best things I've ever done in my speaking career. It really helped me to understand the level I had reached in my speaking business and since receiving the qualification many new doors have opened up for me and I've taken my business up at least three levels."

“The very best thing a new speaker can do is to develop a ‘pick-me’ attitude. Every time someone asks ‘who can help with …..’ get your hand up fast and say ‘PICK ME’.
It is a great way to learn the ropes; to understand what goes on behind the scenes and a great way to get noticed for all the right reasons. When you get noticed you get picked to MC, to thank speakers, to speak! Fancy that!
The second best thing you can do IS GET ON THE COMMITTEE! You will be on the real fast-track to learning that way. “
