Get the opportunity to empower your people from our indispensable team of industry advisors

Ready to inspire and empower your audience?

All of our speakers are consultants who work with advice businesses every day. This means that our speaking engagements go beyond reconstituted commonplace ideas and are filled with rich content and fresh ideas derived from first-hand knowledge, experience and research.

At our core, we are passionate about helping advisers to implement new ideas (rather than just think about them), so wherever possible, we build sessions to enable participants to get traction quickly, and put new skills and ideas into practice.

Whether you’re seeking a speaker for an in-person event, a live webinar or a pre-recorded digital session, all our speakers have copious hours of experience that enables them to bring great energy and engage the audience, regardless of the medium.
