Nina Moghaddam
Climate strategy meetings turn into either technical exchange or PR theatre. The room rarely holds all the right voices at once: board, regulator, operating leader, sustainability lead. And the conversations that matter, what an organisation is actually willing to commit to next, rarely surface.
Nina Moghaddam is a German broadcaster who hosts and moderates senior corporate programmes for clients including the Liz Mohn Stiftung at Bertelsmann, Audi, Porsche and the City of Cologne, with working fluency in six languages including Farsi and Mandarin.
Full Profile
Why organisations work with Nina Moghaddam
- Two decades of live broadcast and corporate event hosting across Super RTL, RTL, RTLZWEI, ProSieben, VOX, Sat.1 and WDR, including current presentation of Lokalzeit OWL and the consumer affairs programme Servicezeit on WDR.
- Fluent in six languages (German, English, French, Spanish, Farsi and Mandarin), which means she can hold a multilingual room without flipping to translation. Particularly useful for international audiences and for German-Persian programmes.
- A corporate moderation portfolio across automotive, FMCG, foundation and public-sector clients. Includes Audi, Porsche, MAN, FERRERO, the Liz Mohn Stiftung at Bertelsmann (Zeitenwende on tour) and the City of Cologne (Viva la Green).
- A personal sustainability practice running back to 2014 (her HappyAndFitDIY YouTube channel, focused on homemade sustainable beauty products), which gives her honest footing on climate-themed agendas without playing the substantive expert.
- Works as a Moderationstrainerin, coaching others in presentation and moderation craft. For internal events, this means she can prep speakers and panel chairs ahead of the day, not only host the room.

Biography
Most corporate sustainability programmes share the same failure mode: a celebrity host who introduces but cannot moderate, and a panel that reverts to talking points by question two. The organisations doing this work seriously want a different kind of room, one where a host knows the territory well enough to ask the right second question.
Moghaddam has spent more than twenty years on German live television. She presented Toggo TV, WOW and Kiddy Contest on Super RTL in the early 2000s, work that earned her a Grimme-Preis nomination in 2005. From there she moved to RTL, anchoring the backstage magazines for Deutschland sucht den Superstar and Das Supertalent. She now presents Lokalzeit OWL and Servicezeit on WDR.
That broadcast spine carries into a corporate setting. Live television teaches four habits: hold a drifting panel, keep an executive answer crisp, recover from a missed cue, and never let the room feel the strain. Her client list reflects where this lands: Audi, Porsche, MAN, FERRERO, REWE Group, UNESCO and the City of Cologne (Viva la Green). Foundation work includes Zeitenwende on tour for the Liz Mohn Stiftung at Bertelsmann.
Her sustainability footing comes from personal practice. She has run the HappyAndFitDIY YouTube channel since 2014, focused on homemade sustainable beauty products, which gives her honest credibility on climate-themed agendas. The booking is for moderation craft. Senior corporate audiences on values-led programmes get a host who has run live television for two decades and works in six languages including Farsi and Mandarin.
