In this brief monologue, speaker Tom Krieglstein shares the core set of questions he asks clients before preparing a keynote. He stresses the importance of understanding the audience size, the speaker’s slot in the agenda (including timing relative to lunch), the type of room (theater, classroom, boardroom, multipurpose), the technical setup (microphone type, screen availability), the intended outcomes of the program, and what the client would consider a "big win" for the event. By gathering these details, he can tailor his content to match audience energy levels, logistical constraints, and the client’s success criteria, ensuring a more effective and engaging presentation.
