Frequently Asked Questions

What makes a speaker "values-driven"?

A values-driven speaker builds their keynote around a genuine principle, such as integrity, resilience, or inclusion, rather than generic motivation. The speakers above each anchor their talk in real, lived experience of a specific value, which is what makes the message land with an audience rather than feel generic.

How do I choose the right values-driven speaker for my event?

Start with the value your organisation most needs to reinforce right now, whether that's resilience through change, ethical decision-making, or inclusive leadership, then match it to a speaker whose story genuinely demonstrates it. PepTalk's team can shortlist options within 24 hours once you share your brief.

How far in advance should we book a speaker?

Popular values-driven speakers get booked out for peak conference season, so reach out as soon as you have a date and budget in mind. Six to eight weeks' notice gives the widest choice of availability, though PepTalk can often accommodate shorter timelines too.
