Overview
Welcome to the Web site for the Northern California Chapter of the National Speakers Association! Whether you are an experienced or aspiring professional speaker, or looking to hire a speaker, we are here to help you meet your goals.
Our mission is to inspire - through example, education, and community - quality and professionalism in both speaking and business development for those who use the platform in their work.
Experienced Speakers
We offer networking with other successful professionals, as well as practical tools to help you reach the next level in your career. Our bi-monthly chapter meetings let you rub shoulders with some of the top speakers and trainers in the country and provide opportunities to brainstorm with your peers on how to overcome your specific challenges. Our chapter newsletter also has creative ideas you can use immediately.
Aspiring Speakers
We offer comprehensive information on how to get started on the road to paid speaking. You may be an author who just wants to speak more persuasively to promote a book, or someone with a passion to help others. Either way, our bi-monthly meetings will jump-start your career, and our chapter newsletter will take years off the learning curve to professional speaking.
