Who is Monique Bradley?
At heart, I am a storyteller.
I bring humour, warmth and real human connection into rooms around the world. On stage, behind the microphone and in the training room, story is how I help people feel connected to each other, building a powerful bridge of rapport and trust, and a pathway to authentic and open communication.
Live TV shopping across New Zealand and Australia taught me to connect in seconds. A Master of Creative Practice taught me why it works. Today I speak, host and train organisations here and overseas.

Working with me
I bring warmth, energy and storytelling expertise, to create a meaningful connection with your audience, giving them permission to show up and share their stories with confidence, while creating a space shaped around your goals, your audience’s needs and the outcomes you want to achieve.
I also teach them the what, why and how of storytelling so they can utilise it to support everyday communication.
Watch Monique speakI use real stories and humour so people relax, listen and remember the idea long after the session ends.
Live TV shopping across New Zealand and Australia taught me to connect in seconds and stay calm when the plan changes.
My Master of Creative Practice explored why story works, so what I bring is felt in the room and grounded in thinking.
Before your event, I ask about your people, your theme and what you want them to walk out with, then prepare for that room.
The book • Signature keynote for 2027
Why more information is making human connection more valuable.
We have never had more ways to communicate. We can message, email, present and use AI to polish our words. Yet moving information is not the same as creating understanding, trust and meaning.
In The Communication Gap, Monique draws on her experience in live television, speaking, training and coaching, alongside her Master of Creative Practice research, to explore communication as something we create with people, not simply deliver to them. The book is the foundation of her 2027 keynote focus: an invitation to come out from behind the computer and be human again.
“Information is what I send. Communication is what we create between us.”
