Three Unconventional Ways a Motivational Speaker Can Help You and Your Team Achieve Your Goals

When most people think about hiring a motivational speaker, the first thing that comes to mind is planning a meeting, booking a hotel, etc.  But you don't have to spend thousands of dollars or take days off from work to train and motivate your staff.

Here are three "unconventional" ways a motivational speaker can help you and your team achieve your goals while saving you a lot of time and money.

1. Hire a motivational speaker to conduct a series of seminars by telephone.

Recently a company hired me to develop and deliver a series training and coaching conference calls delivered over a period of 90 days.  Participants received a focusing questionnaire to help them prepare, an implementation guide for each call and an accountability process to make the training stick.  It was a big success and saved the company thousands of dollars.

2. Hire a motivational speaker to create an online video training for your team.

New video technology makes it possible to deliver all kinds of live and pre-recorded training and coaching using the Internet.  But you must make sure you're working with a motivational speaker who understands how to design and deliver this kind of "virtual" motivation.

3. Hire a motivational speaker to provide monthly or weekly content for your newsletter or staff meeting.

There are many ways to structure this.  One example is having the motivational speaker create a series of special written or "multimedia" articles on a specific topic.  Another is having the motivational speaker deliver a 15-minute coaching implementation session during your team conference call.
