There are many types of speaker available. What speaker you choose depends on a number of factors. For a start, where is your event being held? If it is in a pub, then perhaps the event is a little more low key. If on the other hand you need a speaker for a business conference, you will probably be looking for a more prestigious speaker. The second big factor deciding on a speaker would be the audience. For your sales team, choose a motivational or inspirational speaker. On the other hand, for a casual event for entertaining clients, you may wish to opt for a sports speaker to talk about their past achievements.
Motivational speakers do as their title suggests. Motivational speakers motivate people and get them going. Very often the only thing holding people back from achieving things is their own negativity. There is no magic wand for motivational speakers- they tell it as it is. What they do is replace the negative thoughts with positive ones. Positive thinking people involve themselves in positive activity. Many techniques are employed. Psychology is a popular theory. NLP being a large example of one of the techniques being used. Other motivational speakers differ in that they are far more hands on. They get the audience on stage, and make them face their fears.

Question by naija-ehi: Why can’t I get a job with my TEFL certification simply because every advert want native speakers.?
I have been trying to get a teaching job both in the Middle East and Asia even with my qualifications – MBA, BSC in Accounting and a TEFL International TESOL certification. All the published vacancies only want ‘native speakers’. Why the TEFL certification then if its only ‘native speakers’ that can get teaching jobs with it in some cases without a degree but here I am meeting all the criteria and not getting an offer. I am a Nigerian.
