If you are involved in planning meetings for your company or association, you should consider hiring a motivational humorous speaker for your next event to motivate and humor the attendees. Motivational humorous speakers bring many talents, including motivational and humorous concepts and stories to enhance and reinforce their points. Often times, some of the rewards a motivational humorous speaker speaks about are highly customized, incorporating your companies or association’s mission statement and culture.

Rewards and incentives in meetings
A reward is something that is given following the occurrence of a behavior with the intention of acknowledging the positive nature of that behavior, and often with the additional intent of encouraging it to happen again. There are many examples of what a reward is and isn’t and the motivational humorous speaker will point this out in his presentation. Managers have been using the “Carrot and Stick” method of rewards in American business for decades and are now finding that hiring a motivational humorous speaker can add immediate value to their event. The definition of reward should not to be confused with the definition of reinforcer, which may include a measured increase in the rate of a desirable behavior following the addition of something to the workplace environment. Motivational humorous speakers can help to define and present positive rewards to the meeting attendees. There are two kinds of rewards, extrinsic and intrinsic. The motivational humorous speaker can focus his program on extrinsic rewards, that are external to, or outside of, the individual; for example, praise or money. The motivational humorous speaker may also mention intrinsic rewards that are internal to, or within, the individual; for example, accomplishment or satisfaction. A competent motivational humorous speaker can help your attendees distinguish between the two types of motivation.
It was previously thought that the two types of motivation (intrinsic and extrinsic) could be combined to produce the highest level of motivation. Some motivational humorous speakers distinguish between the two forms of intrinsic motivation: one based on enjoyment, the other on commitment or obligation. In this context, obligation refers to motivation based on what an individual thinks ought to be done. For instance, using motivational humorous speakers at your next event can lead to helping others beyond what is easily observable, rewarded, or fun.
