An amazing group of international speakers gathered together in one location (bureau), letting you choose the next best speaker for your event.
The International Emergency Services Speakers Bureau (IESSB) helps you and your organisation by providing a range of powerful professional and authoritative speakers for you to select from.
Each speaker engages your audience or your leadership team with new ways of thinking about organisational issues, problems or pressure points from their unique management, leadership and emergency service perspective, with each speaker a leader in their own right, many having led, or currently leading large national or state-based emergency organisations.
Speakers have backgrounds, experience and qualifications from the highest command and executive level (ranging from e.g. retired Commissioners, Directors, Assistant Commissioners and Fire Commanders) as well as operational frontline emergency staff such as firefighters ‘riding the big red trucks’, or Police ‘on the beat’ or, a nurse or front-line soldier or sniper.
