It’s easy to turn an alright event into a great one that your employees will be talking about for months. An excellent speaker will inspire, motivate, and educate the audience in a captivating way. Here are five qualities you should look for in a Melbourne, Australia, motivational speaker to take your next event from good to great.
Funny
There’s no better way to keep an audience engaged than with a bit of humor. Great speakers know when to use humor to keep their audience’s attention. Fantastic speakers know just how much humor is best to include and won’t overload their time with too many jokes. You want to look for a speaker with the perfect balance between humor, knowledge, and inspiration.
Dynamic Presentation Style
Even the greatest stories can benefit from an interesting picture or cover art. Experienced Melbourne keynote speakers know how to incorporate multiple styles into their presentations. Their previous work should have large text easily visible to the audience, interesting videos and pictures, and fit into their story-telling.
Relatable
There’s no point in hiring a speaker who only knows about clowns when your event and business involve sustainable recycling practices. Many keynote speakers can research and quickly become acquainted with your industry, but their ability to relate to the audience will make or break the success of our event. A perfect speaker takes their story and relates it to their audience to inspire them.
Able to Connect
Your chosen Melbourne keynote speaker needs to be able to connect their story to your event. Their message, goals, story, or theme must relate to your industry, or people will question their need to be at your event.
Available Add Ons
When hiring a speaker, you should be aware of their willingness to do tasks outside of their presentation. You may want someone who can do a meet and greet, sign copies of their books, or participate in smaller events.
