Arsène Wenger
Arsène Wenger helps organisations build teams that perform for the long term. A leadership and high-performance speaker, he spent twenty-two years running Arsenal and now leads global football development at FIFA.
Arsène Wenger managed Arsenal for twenty-two years and built a club that kept performing season after season. He's now FIFA's Chief of Global Football Development, overseeing coach education and technical analysis of the game worldwide.
At Arsenal, Arsène won three Premier League titles, a record seven FA Cups, and the unbeaten 2003-04 league season that earned his side the name The Invincibles. He holds the record for Premier League matches managed, and in 2023 he and Sir Alex Ferguson became the first managers inducted into the Premier League Hall of Fame.
Before England, Arsène won Ligue 1 with AS Monaco and the Emperor's Cup with Nagoya Grampus Eight. When he arrived at Arsenal in 1996, he changed how players trained, ate, and recovered, and scouted widely abroad for talent. That record of building teams that sustain excellence gives organisations a practical model for long-term performance, talent development, and cultural change.
Audiences hear how Arsène spots and develops talent, sets high standards for a team, and makes long-term decisions under short-term pressure. His autobiography, My Life in Red and White, went to number one in the UK in its launch week and sets out the principles he still works by.
For leadership events, Arsène offers a keynote grounded in two decades of decisions at the top of football, and the lessons he's now applying to the game's global development.

No. PepTalk adds no booking fee, so you pay the speaker's fee and nothing beyond it. The service, from shortlist through to contracts and event-day logistics, is included. For repeat or multi-event bookings, PepTalk can agree preferential rates with your procurement team.
Share your event date, audience, format, objectives and budget, and PepTalk sends a hand-picked shortlist within 24 hours. Each suggestion comes with a profile, a fee and a recommendation on the strongest fit. Once you choose, PepTalk handles contracts, travel and logistics through to event day.
The typical fee range is the speaker's standard in-person fee in their home market, shown in their local currency. It moves with format, location, date and session length: virtual sessions and shorter slots usually cost less, while international travel and peak dates cost more. Send your brief to PepTalk and the team will confirm the exact fee in your currency.
Not all of them, and it makes no difference to your booking. PepTalk's network of 15,000+ speakers covers talent the team works with directly alongside speakers represented by agents and agencies worldwide. PepTalk approaches the speaker, negotiates the fee and handles contracting either way.
Three to six months ahead is comfortable for most events, and 12 months is better for large conferences, peak-season dates or one specific in-demand speaker. Shorter timelines are workable, and PepTalk regularly fills last-minute and replacement bookings within days. Availability is the constraint, so get in touch as soon as you have a date.
