You asked: “How can we get more from our investment in a keynote speaker?”
Kevin’s Answer:
Here are three things you can do to get more from the investment you make in a keynote or conference speaker.
-
Select carefully. Pick a speaker with the expertise you require and a true desire to work with you. Review their work and visit with past clients. Even if someone is a great speaker they might not be the best fit for your event. Ask questions of past clients that are specifically pertinent to your needs.
-
Be clear on your goals. Your group deserves more than a canned talk on a generic topic. Talk to the speaker about your specific goals and how they can best help you reach them.
-
Expect more. Expect a speaker to deliver more than just their talk, whether it is follow-up, discussions with leaders, a roundtable, or whatever. Different speakers have different approaches. Find the mix that meets your needs.
