Communicate, Collaborate, Connect!
Does Everyone in Your Office Get Along Great, Really? Really??
No matter how well your team members and leaders get along, even a slight improvement in communication, interpersonal relationships, people skills, and everyday interactions will significantly enhance productivity, engagement, morale, employee retention, job satisfaction, positivity, customer relationships and contribute to a more positive, productive and profitable workplace and customer- focused culture – And get everyone singing your praises.
Getting Along is even more essential for managers and leaders. It is well known that people join companies and leave managers. Do all you managers and leaders have a high Get Along IQ? If not, how much does it cost you in time, resources, and money to not get the training they need to get along better with colleagues, team members, and customers?
Good interpersonal skills and building positive connections with colleagues and customers are the foundation for everything we do. In fact, according to a study by Harvard and Stanford University, only 15% of your success in your personal and professional life will be due to your technical skills, and 85% will depend on your communication, emotional intelligence, people skills, and ability to get along.
A cooperative and collaborative spirit cultivates a culture that brings out the best in people and performance, keeping everyone energized and productive. When we work well together, everything works better at work, and that carries into our contacts, connections, and relationships with customers and clients.

Talent FAQ's
Do speakers charge a flat fee or by the hour?
Speaker fees can vary depending on factors such as expertise, demand, and event specifics. While some speakers may charge a flat fee for their services, others may have hourly rates. It’s best to discuss fee structures directly with the speaker or their representative to understand the pricing model.
What is the typical duration of a keynote speech and what is included?
Keynote speeches typically range from 30 to 90 minutes, with the duration determined by the speaker’s expertise, the event’s agenda, and audience preferences. Keynote speeches often include a combination of inspirational stories, practical insights, and actionable advice tailored to the event’s theme or objectives.
Does the scale of the event and audience size affect a speaker’s fee?
The scale of the event and audience size can indeed impact a speaker’s fee. Larger events with a broader reach or higher attendance may command higher fees due to increased exposure and demand. Conversely, smaller events or niche audiences may offer opportunities for more flexible pricing arrangements.
Travel expenses and other costs
Travel expenses such as transportation, accommodation, and meals are typically negotiated separately from the speaker’s fee. These costs vary depending on the speaker’s location, travel distance, and event duration. It’s important to clarify travel arrangements and expenses during the booking process to avoid misunderstandings.
Deposits and securing a booking
Many speakers require a deposit to secure a booking, with the remaining balance due closer to the event date. Deposits are often non-refundable and serve as a commitment from both parties. It’s advisable to discuss deposit requirements and payment terms with the speaker or their representative when finalizing the booking.
Additional tips and takeaways
- Virtual speaking appearances are a cost-effective alternative to high speaking fees, often 10-50% cheaper than in-person rates.
