Use speaking to drive and grow your business!

NSA Northwest is partnering with NSA Southern California to present an unbelievable, live, intensive six-month Speaker’s Academy program. This comprehensive curriculum will teach you what you need to know to grow a successful speaking business. Participants will learn from more than 20 nationally renowned faculty, successful speakers who are the best of the best in the industry. Students will also build relationships with fellow speakers in their cohort here in Oregon and around the country.

How do you know if Speaker’s Academy is right for you?

  • Do you have a desire to turn your passion for speaking into a profession of speaking? Perfect. What you need to go with your desire and passion is a well-rounded knowledge of the business, and the tools to put it all together. 
  • Do you want to fine-tune your speaking business plan? Smart, and strategic, because you’ve got to level up to compete. 
  • Do you want to hone your speaking skills? If speaking is part of how you succeed in your work, you better! Because if you don’t, you’re either cocky, or you’re coasting. 
  • Do you wish you had a built-in community of fellow speakers with whom you could grow, learn and thrive? This is a weird business, it can be a lonely business, and you need colleagues who get you, and speaking.

The best speakers, no matter if they are new or they’ve been speaking for years, are constantly looking to grow, to learn, and to improve their business and their speaking.
