On a corporate letter to the employees in the United States.
"don't forget to book a company representative to speak in the rally"
I shouldn't use 'reservar' with people but I can't think of a better word.
Thanks.

Note from asker:
| Gracias Romado. Sí había pensado en 'contratar' pero en este caso no es adecuado ya que la persona ya pertenece a la compañía. |

registrar a una persona
En este caso es registrar, ya que es para que dé una ponencia en el evento, y efectivamente se refiere a un empleado ya contratado con anterioridad.

: Totalmente correcto, Maru. Registrar a un empleado o funcionario para que hable en el evento. Es lo que yo pondría, de preferencia sobre "designar", que es "appoint" y no "book". El registro es con los organizadores del evento, y la designac. es interna.
