High School Motivational Speaker

Monday, January 24th, 2011

School administrators, counselors and teachers doing research on inspiring speakers, are you ready to change the culture of your high school?

Schools have a tendency of doing the same programs year after year and bringing in the same speakers with the same message.

It’s time to bring a youth speaker to your high school to motivate your students to kick it up a notch. Just like adults, teenagers need a boost of confidence that can be spoken into them through a motivational speaker. Imagine your students in the gym, cafeteria or auditorium sitting on the edge of their seats laughing and listening to a young energetic speaker sharing humorous stories while motivating them to live out their dreams by making positive decisions at school.

Do you want your students talking about college and becoming leaders at your high school?

Truth is, your students are hungry for something new and different, fun and innovative, so planning an assembly at your school demonstrates to your students that you care about them.

A speaker who targets teens understands the social characteristics that they have and presents a message that breaks barriers that are often in place between students and school administrators. Students are interested in adult roles that include leadership and high-level decision making yet most are not challenged to live out their potential at school. Students are the leading factors of cultural change, so if you want to change the school’s culture, get students motivated to take action.

Why it’s best to invest in a speaker?

If you are planning a youth event at your high school, it’s best to invest in a keynote speaker that can make you, the event planner, look good. A hired speaker will produce the results you want for the following reasons:  1. they know you are investing in your students and 2. they want you to refer them to your colleagues.  So why not get your students excited about a future event that will change their lives.

Last Minute Planning

So you are planning an event for youth and you don’t have a speaker, what do you do? First let me remind you that most people who are searching for speakers typically are not event planners. In fact they are put in charge of an event and don’t have a clue of where to turn to hire someone to speak to their students.

Waiting for the last minute to book a speaker happens often. Primarily because of funding. Event planners don’t often have the budget they need to plan a successful conference or school assembly. Sometimes a speaker can opt out of your event causing you to panic and search for a replacement, this happens at times as well. Click to continue »

Have you ever wondered what event planners look for before they pick up the phone and book a speaker?

You and everybody else who gets paid to speak has the same question in mind. If you simply take a step back and consider the implications of hiring a speaker from an event planners perspective, then you will have a better idea of what they look for. Let’s examine this from their perspective. 

Four areas event planners consider: Audience, Time, Money and Approach.

Audience

This is the highest priority for planners. Since their job is to create a successful event, they need to know their audience. Of course the target audience is set ahead of time. For example, is the event is called Youth Leadership Conference, then more than likely the audience is going to be youth age students that are interested in becoming stronger leaders. So planners are not going to want someone to bring a message about dropping out of high school. Click to continue »
