Makheni Motana

Makheni Motana is an accomplished business owner, facilitator, professional MC, speaker, and an entertaining storyteller.

As a successful consultant who is used to customising content for every client, Makheni brings her wisdom to any function by offering an integrated MC service, rather than simply "reading a script".  Through her core business, she offers skills development solutions and specialises in organisational culture change interventions, which brings her in direct touch with a wide spectrum of people, from executive leadership to the lowest level.  This experience has equipped her to comfortably interact with audiences at all levels, and forms the core of her presentation and facilitation approach. 

This versatile personality who also contributes to business publications, retail magazines and TV and radio programs, handles fun events such as women’s functions and year-end parties with the same ease as she does high energy, professional corporate and organisational events.  Her tasteful humour, contagious energy and fun attitude captures and keeps the audience's attention.  As a storyteller, Makheni can customise her presentation to the theme of the function and/or the demographics of the guests.

Apart from being one of the most recognisable faces in the consulting world, Makheni has been involved in the local media industry since 2002, having been a TV talk show co-host, had two unscripted inspirational slots on SABC 3, appeared on Backstage and Erfsondes, contributed to Real magazine for 3 years, contributes to business publications and regularly contributes to radio stations such as Lesedi.
