A survey was conducted of 54 respondents at the HR Summit on 24-25 April 2013. It assessed the training needs and practices of various organizations. The majority of respondents' organizations hire external speakers for events and engage external trainers for in-house programs. Most organizations spend between 10-50% of their budget on external training and speakers. Respondents find speakers through personal contacts/networks, referrals/word of mouth, and online/the internet most often. Few respondents had heard of the Asia Professional Speakers organization before taking the survey.
