How Speaker’s Become Thought Leaders
Speakers are thought leaders, and that means part of our job is to study and keep up with the people and events that shape the world.

Who Motivates the Motivator?
This may be the most irritating question I’ve heard over the past 20 years at the National Speakers Association. Speakers should be the most self-motivated people in the room.

The days of earning passive income, back of room sales and huge public seminars are over. Speakers that recognize this and adjust to the change will...

It’s time to set your speaking goals for 2019. The profession is experiencing massive disruption, and the only speakers who will succeed in 2019 and beyond will be the smart and savvy. I would recommend that you focus on your numbers, starting with cash flow, and work backwards from there. I’m expecting to have our...
