Will team mates listen to you, if you have no diplomas or executive titles? This can be the decisive test for respectable leadership. It is also a criterion for choosing a good motivational speaker. Will people listen to her, if she couldn't use her golden tongue? Will employees listen to him if he wasn't well known?
The complexity of our modern marketplace is that most teams in business are fed-up for rules and regulations and over hungry for human leadership. Management entails the technical wellbeing of an organization and leadership the human wellbeing. All rational people will acknowledge that the one needs the other, but unfortunately the process and managerial category get overemphasized at the cost of the human element. Rookie managers profess the importance of systems at the detriment of the employees reporting to them. This is also a fact in the conference industry. Certain motivational speakers swear by the importance of business acumen but have never even led a sales team or human resources department in real life. Some motivational speakers head up leadership development initiatives in big companies, but have never set their foot in the corporate world. The business world needs motivational speakers with hands on experience, not theoretical knowledge in the absence of hard earned experience. Choose a guest speaker that came through the business mill and understand the tough times of corporate life.
