Top 5 motivational speakers in Adelaide

Whether it's a workforce, school, club, or association, people can always use an extra bit of motivation, and finding the perfect guest speaker for your next event could be the key to igniting the spark.

An effective motivational speaker is defined by their ability to adequately set the tone for an event with an impactful, insightful, stimulating and thought provoking presentation. Engaging the audience is often determined by the speakers' ability to properly connect and resonate with their audience and maintain interest with aspects such as humour, spontaneity, and storytelling.

That is why here at Pickstar we have put together a top 5 list of motivational speakers available for booking in Adelaide!

Paralympic gold medallist Katrina Webb offers a unique insight into sports, life, and society.

After securing a netball scholarship at a young age with the Australian Institute of Sport, a surprise twist of fate saw her diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy. Instead of letting this label get the better of her, Katrina instead decided to compete in a range of athletic events, allowing her to go to the Paralympics and represent her country.

Katrina now resides in Adelaide where she shares her story of perseverance and triumph. She speaks on resilience, how to stay motivated in times of hardship, as well as diversity and inclusion. Katrina has gone as far as to represent Australia at the United Nations and has also been an ambassador for the International Paralympic Committee. She is available for motivational speaking engagements throughout Adelaide.

However, Robert's career was not all on-field glory and success. During his time playing in Malaysia, thousands of kilometres away from family and friends, Robert and his wife Nel suffered the tragic death their newborn baby after a premature birth. Robert's story of how he overcame this heartbreak to continue to perform at the highest of levels is a testament to his resilience and is the reason why he sits on Pickstar's list of Top 5 Motivational Speakers in Adelaide.

An Adelaide native, Celeste has gone on to use her platform to motivate others to get out and be active. A qualified personal trainer, she has recently been an ambassador for the South Australian Premier's Be Active Challenge and also volunteers at many schools throughout Adelaide motivating kids to live healthy and active lifestyles.
