About us
Speakers for Good is a purpose driven speakers agency on a clear mission
Best speakers and moderators for the world
The ever-growing ecological, social and economic challenges have brought to the surface a deeper, more fundamental problem.
Our current systems and institutions are dated and no longer function as they should. A transition to the next stage in our civilization is inevitable and irreversible.
Speakers for Good is a unique, purpose driven speakers agency. Together with the best speakers and moderators for the world, we create measurable impact at every event, with vital ideas and solutions for the world of tomorrow.

Unique inspiration for your event.
Ideas.
Solutions.
Impact.
Act Now. From Moment to Movement.
Shared vision and direction is not enough. Transition requires effective action and leadership we have rarely seen.
Our speakers, moderators and other changemakers provide clarity about the future and concrete hope for a better world.
Our vital ideas and solutions contribute to the necessary and irreversible transitions of our key institutions, systems and sectors.
At the core, it’s all about a fundamental change in behavior: a different way of thinking, living and working. It’s about producing differently and consuming less.

Expedition to Net Positive
We live in an extraordinary era, with a prime opportunity to reshape the world and future. We have an opportunity to transform to economies that are regenerative and to make our businesses Net Positive.
Speakers for Good takes courageous people and organizations on an expedition to Net Positive; an unconditional appeal to the head and the heart.
And the good news is: it works!
By giving more than taking, organizations become Net Positive.
Tens of thousands of companies and institutions have seen their performance and results improve this way: ecologically, socially, as well as financially.
By working together on our biggest challenges ever, with brave and compassionate leadership, we become Net Positive and create true progress.
We can live within planetary boundaries without leaving anyone behind.
Always. Everywhere. For everyone. In all aspects.

Only in radical interdependency can we end the destruction of our environment and the draconic inequality in our society.

17 Sustainable Development Goals for one purpose
At Speakers for Good, we believe it’s better to be the best for the world than of the world. That’s why we work with the action-based Good Life Goals. These are derived directly from the 17 SDGs. Together, they are the compass for humanity and the starting point for every organization in the 21st century.
Why choose
Speakers for Good?
Your event is very important, also to us
We can create real impact together that lasts and inspires people to make a difference, an example for others. It’s bitterly necessary and especially, incredibly fun.
Best speakers and moderators for the world
Speakers for Good works exclusively with the best speakers and moderators for the world. They not only address the problems, but also contribute vital ideas and solutions.
They all have unique stories that deeply touch and inspire people. Meaningful stories, based on facts, interpreted from the head and heart.
Remedy for the delusion of the day
Speakers for Good focuses on what happens daily. Not on the weather, but on climate change. Not on wage growth, but on inequality, poverty and the inevitable redistribution.
We offer a deeper understanding of how our crazy world and troubled society works. We contribute with vital ideas and solutions for the world of today and tomorrow.
Independent but not impartial
Speakers for Good is completely independent, but certainly not impartial. Our speakers and moderators act on behalf of one planet and all that lives on it, including 8 billion people.
We challenge stereotypes, prejudice and fear-mongering. We debunk the myths which people might still believe in.
Transparency and continuous self-improvement
We do not have all the answers, nor do we offer a solution to all the problems in the world.
We are constantly improving ourselves and invite others to help us do so.
We continue to learn together, about ourselves and about the world around us.
Personalization is our standard
We work with the best speakers, moderators and partners for the world. Physically or digitally, on stage or in the studio, we create the most personalized impact.
