I agree with the wording change but would like a reference if we can find it.

@aterrel "Studies show that most speakers don’t usually ask to be invited. So, if you wait for them to apply, you might not get many responses. A better approach is to actively reach out and invite potential speakers to encourage more participation.

i think going with this would be great

We can proceed if it is quite long yet easy to comprehend.
"" According to studies, the majority of presenters don't often request an invitation. Therefore, you may not receive many responses if you wait for them to apply. To promote greater participation, it is preferable to proactively contact and extend invitations to possible speakers. ""

How about this :
Studies indicate that most presenters do not actively request invitations. If you wait for them to apply, you may receive few responses. To increase participation, it is best to take the initiative by personally reaching out to potential speakers and inviting them. This approach ensures a more engaging and diverse event.

I couldn't find direct academic studies on this specific topics .but this platform named "conference monkey" suggests that "waiting for speakers to apply may not yield optimal participation and that actively inviting speakers can enhance engagement and diversity."
if you want you can use this as a reference @aterrel

@hiteshkarvil Please don't resolve my comments without addressing them. In general the review should be the one to resolve.

If we are going to make the claim "Researchers say X" then we need to cite that. I suggest we drop the whole citation there and reword the sentence to not imply there is a research study that proved this advice.
