Strategic Planning for Professional Speakers with Kristin Arnold, CSP®, CPAE
In a world of constant interruptions and shiny pennies to keep us distracted, Kristin Arnold, CSP®, CPAE will lead you through a dynamic workshop to create your own personal professional speaker business strategy and plan for 2024.
As a strategic planning facilitator, Kristin knows the power of having a simple one-page plan to propel your business. Just for her NSA colleagues, Kristin modified her corporate process to serve the professional speaker.
In this workshop, she will share her step-by-step process to identify your key strategic initiatives, key tasks, and a cadence of execution to move you closer to your goals. More importantly, she’ll share with you templates that were made specifically for professional speakers. You get to pick and choose, adapt what you like and leave behind the rest.
Kristin makes a bold promise (if you stay for the entire morning): You will walk out with a one-page plan that will guide your business in 2024.
Whether you have only been in the business for a short while or you’re a seasoned vet like Kristin, you’ll understand and appreciate the importance of creating a well-thought out plan to substantially increase your success in the next year.

This week’s “chapter" in our Next Up Speakers program will focus on assessing and developing your own authentic speaking skills and style. We’ll explore influential use of content, voice and body language - breaking each of these down into key criteria, and we’ll share proven practice techniques for elevating the quality and impact of your presentations. In addition, we’ll offer up a variety of ways to channel any anxiety or nervous energy into engaging and persuasive presentations.
