Speaking

I’ve spoken at career fairs, universities, schools, and community group engagements. Please reach out to me on the Contact Page, or Twitter if you are interested in having me speak at your organization or event.

“I had the pleasure of attending Khalid’s inspirational TedxAjman talk in 2012. His analysis and insights on the 3E’s – education, employment, and entrepreneurship – were eye-opening. He kept us engaged with stories from his personal experience and, despite the harsh reality of the situation facing the region, he left us with a positive message and hope for “a better tomorrow”. I look forward to hearing Khalid speak more often – many audiences await his magic!”

– Najla Al Midfa, Founder and CEO, Khayarat

“I don’t think I can find the words to express how eye-opening your talk was, I can assure you that all of my friends and classmates were affected by it. I can honestly tell you that you inspired me, you are a great example of who we should look up to and who we should strive to become like. Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule, talking and actually listening to us, I hope this won’t be the last time you visit. “

“What can I say – we waited over a year for Khalid to come back to the UAE and speak at our event, and he was well worth the wait! The audience of teachers and principals were not only touched, but motivated by his honest words. It’s not often you find a speaker so accomplished, and yet so very humble. Not afraid to rock the boat, he really “gets it” and tells it how it is. By the end of his short speech, he had connected with everyone in the auditorium and the audience were visibly enthused by his awesome positive energy and passion. I can’t wait to see him speak again!”

“Through his encouraging words, and his apparent passion for what he does as a motivational speaker, Mr. Khalid Al Ameri inspired all of us. Most students our age find themselves lost or uncertain when it comes to career planning and other future related issues; including me. But thanks to Mr. Khalid’s beneficial workshop at school, I have a better idea and a clearer vision of what would I want to do in the future, and what steps should I take starting from today to reach my goals.”

“Khalid spoke at Tamakkan in a session dedicated to encouraging entrepreneurs to ‘take their businesses to the next level’. Khalid understood the premise precisely and gave a well-crafted talk that combined great advice, entertaining anecdotes, personal insight and a great dose of positivity. He left entrepreneurs inspired and filled with hope and a sense of purpose.”

– Sana Bagersh, Founder Tamakkan

  1. Very inspired by your talk and way of thinking and I agree with a lot of the points you mentioned. I think if every Emirati follows your words it will make a world of difference. I am a firm believer and have special interest in education within a community, although my career path isn’t directly relevant to education, I hope I could make an influence someday. Our government and leaders may God bless them, are providing us with everything we need to get the best education but it is up to the people to make a difference.
