Let’s be real, as an event coordinator and the person responsible for booking speakers, your ass is on the line. If the speaker is awesome, you look like a rockstar. If the speaker is a dud, you’re the one who takes the heat (regardless of the fact that you can’t control what happens on stage).
Let me make it easy for you. Let me make you look good – and give your audience a powerful experience they won’t soon forget.
I’ve coached TEDx speakers, leaders, entrepreneurs, and even a politician – and have booked numerous speakers for events. I’m intimately familiar with all aspects of speaking onstage and off, so I know how important it is as an event organizer to have someone who’s a good speaker anchoring the event with their talk.
Below you’ll find a couple examples of me speaking. My 2015 TEDx talk has over 150,000 views and while I spoke about “How to get your Kids to Listen & Engage” the message holds true in business as well.
While my audiences range from the TEDx stage in front of a 1400+ live audience to roomfuls of 200+ women entrepreneurs, and even smaller, more intimate gatherings with men and women, along with live interviews on radio, my focus and intention is always the same: Show up professionally and authentically and give each unique audience my best content in a way that’s entertaining, educational, inspirational, thought-provoking, and tailored for how listeners will best receive the message that wants to come through me.
