Most speakers believe growth happens on stage — but the truth is, mastery is built in the debrief. In this solo episode of Speaker Driven Business, Jacqueline Brooker reveals the Speaker’s After Action Review — a powerful, military-inspired process that transforms every talk into a launchpad for your next level.
You’ll learn the six game-changing questions elite speakers ask after every event, the engagement and conversion markers that matter most, and how to build a feedback loop that compounds your growth for years.
Jacqueline shares behind-the-scenes stories from professional speakers, elite military training, and her own career to show why skipping this step is quietly capping your bookings, income, and impact. Whether you’re just starting out or chasing global keynote status, this episode will change the way you approach every stage — and give you the system to become impossible to ignore.
In this episode, you’ll discover:
- The exact After Action Review process adapted from the US military (10:06)
- Six must-ask questions that uncover your fastest path to improvement (11:35)
- The performance markers that actually drive rebookings and referrals (12:26)
- How to involve the right people (and filter out the wrong feedback) (13:06)
- A repeatable review habit that accelerates mastery year after year (14:47)
