Profile

Unlocking Confidence, Crafting Narratives: Communication Catalyst & Master Storyteller

Jason Gunn is a New Zealand household name. At 18, Jason became the face of New Zealand children's television with Jase TV and the long-running Son of a Gunn Show. He went on to host a number of top television programmes, anchored #1 radio shows, and became a director, writer and producer with his own production company. He also runs his own communications training company, “Easily Said.”

Mission

In 2019 following a major health scare, Jason realised a long-held dream of starting his own communications training company, “Easily Said”. Today the thriving business teaches individuals and organisations how to communicate with confidence and master the art of storytelling.

Jason learnt from the best of the business and now he wants to play that forward. As a top tier MC and keynote speaker, Jason is highly entertaining. His ability to connect with an audience on a personal level is unparalleled. Jason delivers in a unique, light and meaningful way.

Keynote

Jason can cater his skills to a wide range of events, with an emphasis on storytelling. He asserts that an audience is more likely to remember what you say if you stick away from facts, figures and flow charts and tell more stories. Jason inspires and uplifts his audience to integrate this drive and take the fear out of public speaking. Be a confident communicator.

Through his decades of experience in broadcasting and as one of New Zealand’s beloved media personalities, Jason guides others in how to connect with their audience, speak with clarity and be memorable. He will have you looking and sounding your very best.
