Finding Your Speaking Sweet Spot

Charlotte Kemp’s “Finding Your Speaking Sweet Spot” offers professional speakers a comprehensive framework for building sustainable, fulfilling speaking careers. Drawing from her extensive experience as past president of both the Professional Speakers Association of Southern Africa and the Global Speakers Federation, Charlotte addresses the confusion many new speakers face when navigating this complex profession.

The ultimate goal isn’t mastering specific categories but achieving clarity about your unique combination of strengths, preferences, values, and expertise. When you understand exactly what you offer, who you serve, how you deliver, and why it matters, you “become a category of one”—a speaker so distinctive that clients seek you specifically because nobody else does what you do.

Wow! I honestly wish I had this book right when I started! Over the last couple of years I felt judged for my decisions, so much so that I feared stepping out! Your book really told me “IT IS UP TO YOU”! Now it is time for me to take from your book what resonates with me, and use it! It just opened up a whole new understanding of the speaking world.
