Inspirational Speakers – January 2026
January has been a busy one for us which is no surprise as this quarter always is. We have had lots of events taking place alongside a steady stream of enquiries coming in, making it a real team effort across the board. A huge shoutout goes to the team here at Inspirational Speakers for doing such a brilliant job under pressure, particularly as I managed to sneak off for a cheeky holiday in the sun. A strong start to the year and one we are really proud of.
As we start the final quarter of the financial year, its great to look ahead to some of the upcoming events taking place, and a chance to work with some of our new speakers (check them out below!)

Monthly Shoutout
This month’s shoutout goes to Nick Saunders.
I had a great catch up with Nick recently and it has been brilliant to see his newly updated profile which is looking fantastic. Nick is a leading expert in workplace relationships, supporting organisations to improve performance by strengthening how people communicate, collaborate and handle conflict. He brings huge insight and practical value to his work and it is always a pleasure to work with him.
New speakers
We are pleased to introduce a few new speakers to our website this month, below is a short bio, but if you are keen to know more – just click on their name to go to the profile!
Baroness Tina Stowell is a former Leader of the House of Lords and Cabinet Minister whose distinguished career has encompassed senior roles in Downing Street, Washington, the BBC and Parliament. She is renowned for ‘getting things done’ and surpassing expectations when faced with ‘impossible’ challenges: from leading equal marriage legislation through the House of Lords.
Eddie Obeng speaks on the defining challenges facing leaders today, including AI and digital enablement, leading in complex uncertainty, and growth in a challenging geopolitical landscape. Known for moving beyond theory, he focuses on what to do and how to do it, with a simple guiding principle: Inspire, Educate and Provoke to Act.
Alastair Greener is a generational communication expert, keynote speaker, author and podcaster who helps leaders bridge the generation gap in the workplace. He works with organisations to create more cohesive, collaborative and productive teams, while strengthening communication and relationships across every age group.
Omar Sharif is a speaker whose story is both extraordinary and relatable: a powerful journey from hardship to high performance. Growing up in one of London’s most challenging neighbourhoods, he faced violence, instability, and a deep sense of disconnection. By the age of 18, he was homeless and, like so many others, at risk of becoming a forgotten statistic.
