As a certified and highly experienced trainer and speaker, Trudie enjoys delivering workshops on a wide range of topics, and loves to support others in developing their confidence, skills and courage in this field.
For more than thirty years she has been standing up to be counted, and standing up for others in council chambers, political meetings, trustee meetings, executive discussions and board meetings. In 2024, after two years of training, mentorship and assessment, Trudie was admitted to the Guld of Professional Toastmasters. She was only the second female to be admitted as a fellow, and the first to serve on the Guild’s committee.
As a trained toastmasters and MC Trudie has presented at awards events, gala dinners, auction nights, charity fundraisers and very many weddings.

In 2026 Trudie plans to work alongside a leader in the field of presentation skills to deliver POWERFUL PRESENTING workshop dates. Connect with Trudie if you’d like to receive details as soon as the programme is finalised.
