Conference speakers are often industry leaders, world-class achievers, and experts with years of experience. They offer valuable insights that can shape the direction of an event and have a long-term impact on an organisation, investing considerable time in preparing and tailoring their content to suit the specific needs of an event, audience and theme. They also have many other pressures on their busy schedules besides speaking engagements. All these factors contribute to influencing their fee. JLA has a comprehensive understanding of those fees, where there might be flexibility and the value the conference speaker brings through their insights, inspiration, and ability to engage the audience.
