Years ago, my client booked a high-profile keynote speaker and insisted in having the CEO of the company act as the moderator. This was a big mistake. โ
Both the meeting professional and myself urged, even begged the CEO to use a professional moderator for the fireside chat-style conversation, to no avail.
The CEO was not equipped to handle the strong personality of the speaker and quickly the fireside chat turned into a one-man show.
It made the CEO look ineffective and even weak and more importantly, the message that we all worked so hard on was completely lost. The session was ruined. ๐ถ

๐ The flow of the conversation is managed by the moderator
๐ The investment made in the keynote speaker is maximized
๐ Key messaging points are guaranteed to be covered
๐ The timeline of the session will be followed
๐ Moments of spontaneity can be leveraged but will not divert the focus of the conversation
A professional moderator will only enhance your event.

We had a speaker cancel at the last-minute. Without missing a beat, The Keynote Curators offered several options to choose from. The replacement hit it out of the park. We avoided a potential disaster and looked good doing it. Thanks to The Keynote Curators.

We have used several different agencies, but The Keynote Curators is the one that goes the furthest in understanding our meetingsโ goals and messaging. This is the difference maker for us and is the reason why we continue to work with them.
