Jehan Casinader is an award-winning TV journalist, speaker, mental health advocate – and returns as MC for our 50th anniversary conference.
Jehan was named “Reporter of the Year” at the New Zealand Television Awards. In the aftermath of natural disasters, terror attacks, sporting triumphs and everything in between, he has helped hundreds of people to share their inspiring stories.
In 2020, Jehan opened up about his journey through depression, in a book called This Is Not How It Ends: How rewriting your story can save your life (HarperCollins). Now, he travels around New Zealand, teaching Kiwis about the power of storytelling. He’s also an official ambassador for Men’s Health Week.
Jehan is a familiar face in the building and construction sector, having hosted high-profile events for many years. He understands the challenges facing our industry, and has a fresh perspective on how we can tackle them. Jehan is stoked to be joining us again in Wellington, as our MC for all three days of the conference.
