In the training and consulting industry, there are basically three types of options to choose from.
Option #1: The first is the academic expert. Typically, this expert has a high level of content, but the information is typically delivered in a way that causes participants tune in and out and retention of the information is low. Audiences will usually describe this type of speaker as boring or monotone. The key thing to remember is that it doesn't matter how good the information is if the people who are in the audience aren't listening.
Option #2: The second is the motivational speaker. Typically, this expert has a tremendous amount of charisma and the delivery is highly entertaining. However, the amount of practical content is often lacking. It feels good, but when the programs conclude, very little change has occured. This type of speaker delivers material at a very high, thoeretical, level so the practical application of the information is very challenging. These types of speakers are fun but vague.
These first two types of experts make up about 95% of trainers and consultants, and neither will give a high level of return on investment. The academic has good content but is boring. The motivational speaker is entertaining but has little practical content.
