Therese Tarlinton
Think Productive Facilitator
Therese Tarlinton is a Think Productive facilitator who helps women in high-pressure roles create more impact with less overwhelm. With a background in strategic partnerships and marketing, she has worked with brands such as Jeep, Benetton, CSR, James Hardie, and De Lorenzo, as well as integrating products into TV formats like The Block, Selling Houses Australia, and Big Brother. She knows first-hand what it’s like to work in environments where expectations are high, deadlines are tight, and performance is constantly measured.
A best-selling author and experienced keynote speaker, Therese is known for her practical, commercially-minded approach and her ability to make complex ideas feel simple and usable. In the Productivity Ninja workshops, she brings this experience into the room – helping women in banking and finance build smarter habits, protect their attention, and create space for the deep work and strategic thinking their roles demand.
Passionate about seeing more women thrive in leadership and decision-making roles, Therese combines empathy, humour, and real-world stories to create a learning environment that is honest, energising, and immediately applicable back at the desk.
