Jasper Taylor 2024 Speech Titles
Jasper was just ten years old when he realised he was never going to be a professional sportsman. That’s a young age to shatter your own dreams! But instead of letting it get him down, he immediately decided the next best thing would be to have a job where he got paid to talk about sport instead.
Fast forward 19 years and Jasper is one of the most experienced TV presenters under the age of 30 in the world. After becoming one of Sky Sports’ youngest ever presenters, he has gone on to present thousands of hours of live TV for one of the world’s media powerhouses, covering the biggest sporting events on the planet including World Cups, Olympic Games, and European Championships. He’s interviewed hundreds of current and former athletes, as well as many other well-known faces in the sporting world.
Jasper has been recognised by Forbes on their prestigious '30 under 30' list and named the 'Young Sports Broadcaster of the Year' by the Sports Journalism Association of Great Britain.
Jasper is an engaging, charismatic and knowledgeable speaker, particularly for businesses who are looking to inspire and motivate their workforce. Jasper's passion is speaking about speaking! With his thousands of hours of live TV experience, and hundreds of hours of research into the topic, Jasper transforms the way his audience views public speaking. He has developed a unique, mindset-focused approach to help people greatly improve their public speaking skills.
Jasper’s most requested talk, ‘How becoming a PEAK speaker will change your life’, will not only improve every attendee's speaking skills but will also show them how they can apply the same principles to improve a host of other areas in their life.
Jasper is also a popular event host and moderator. He will use his experience, professionalism and charisma to ensure your event is a huge success. Jasper will work closely with you in the run-up to the event and on the day itself in order to provide the best experience for the audience. He is adaptable, dependable and memorable and able to work with any size of audience both in-person and virtually.
“Jasper compered a fantastic event for us at the Sport and Recreation Alliance, bringing knowledge, professionalism and humour – knowing when to dial up and down energy depending on the awards being presented. His passion for what he does is real. He was a pleasure to work with and we will definitely be using him more and would wholeheartedly recommend him to others.”
- Lisa, CEO
Jasper's workshop was brilliant - particularly for those for whom public speaking is a rare experience and/or a scary thought. The course starts where any communication should, thinking about the audience. It dives into the psychology of public speaking and what people can do to get over the fear. It is delivered brilliantly - with energy, vulnerability and expertise. Our team loved it and found it so helpful.”
- Jamie - Director of Global Development and Communications
“I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you for your support with our ceremony. You were absolutely fantastic and we had so much positive feedback throughout the event on how you presented the awards – I particularly was grateful for the way you read the room and managed to lift their spirits at the start of the ceremony. It was a huge relief on the day knowing you were expertly leading the awards and certainly made them feel more special for our guests.”
- Amie – Events Manager
“Jasper was a wonderful compere and presenter for our Community Sport and Recreation Awards. He was an assured speaker and was able to energise the audience with his warm, supportive demeanour – ensuring no awkward silences were present throughout the ceremony. Jasper had clearly spent time researching what the awards were about and used his opening and closing speeches to recognise those in the room - doing so in his own inspiring and inclusive words. He also made a point of being generous with his time before and after the event to speak with attendees and dignitaries in the room. We would have no hesitation in recommending Jasper to others in the sector who require a polished host and would be delighted to work with him again for our future events.”
- Alex Sexton – Head of Marketing & Communications
