That the choice of motivational speaker for your event will influence the success of the event is a gross understatement. Before choosing a Liverpool Keynote Speaker, every event organizer must do the following;
Watch them work
Experience is one of the most important determinants of suitability for any job. The beauty of event keynote speaker jobs is that one has the chance to actively review the quality of this experience, especially in this digital age. The best way to assess whether they will be relevant and engaging is seeing how successfully they have done that in the past. You can watch a video of them or attend one of their events. When watching them work, look for their strengths and weaknesses, and how the audience responds to them and their talking points.
Their process
Evaluate the preparation process of the speaker before having them sign the contract. What amount of research do they conduct? What are their expectations? How do they plan to meet the expectations of the audience? Do they involve the organizing company and the event organizers in the process? These are some of the questions that will help evaluate the quality of the preparation that goes into the event. Gauge the their understanding of the topics and how they understand the industry and the audience, and make sure the speech plays into the overall organizational goals for the event. You might even need to work with the speaker to formulate topics, review the content and even watch them rehearse.
Before and after speech
Make sure the speaker is ready for some pre and post event appearances and engagements with the audience before having them sign the event speaker contract. When the speaker makes a dash for the door soon after finishing, the audience feels unappreciated. Most of the time, the keynote speaker is the main event attraction, and the more time the audience gets to engage with him, the more successful the event will feel, to them at least. Ultimately, the speaker should be one who is able to engage the audience before, during and after the speech.
