Honestly Speaking shares the insider secrets to hiring professional speakers. It draws on the personal experience of Andrew Vine, from his 13-year career at The Economist and the past 12 years as the founder and managing director of an international speaker bureau - The Insight Bureau. It takes readers on a journey into the sometimes mysterious, often baffling and occasionally notorious world of professional speaking, and is written for anyone in who finds themselves responsible for devising the agenda for a significant meeting or event, and aims to raise the bar in terms of understanding -- and therefore confidence -- in hiring professional speakers to deliver outstanding results.
