Workplace Conference SpeakerDublin
Dublin's calendar is packed with conferences, town halls and industry events. The Convention Centre, the RDS, the Aviva, Croke Park, Web Summit week, dozens of corporate venues across the city. Audiences sit through a lot of speakers in any given week.
Ronan stands out as a workplace conference speaker because the talks don't fall into the usual patterns. He mixes research with story, drawing on his work with corporate leadership teams, Ireland Rugby, the Dublin footballers and Google Dublin. The themes — belonging, psychological safety, team connection — translate across industries and resonate with audiences from frontline staff to senior leadership.
Talks are tailored to the theme of your conference and the audience in the room. Sessions typically run between one and two hours, with space for Q&A or workshop elements if you want it.
"I have had the pleasure and privilege of working with Ronan for several years now. Most recently, Ronan has been working with the Operations Leadership Team in Clúid to build our connectivity as a team, delve in to how we work together and how we can create a high performing environment to achieve our vision. Like many, Ronan has a rich knowledge from an academic perspective however this is linked with an innate ability to connect with people in a group environment and a special understanding of how to design a safe space for people to achieve tangible, sustainable outcomes. Ronan cares deeply about the people he works with, brings all of himself to his work and prepares meticulously in order to maximise the value for all."
"The businesses that create an environment for its people where those people can be themselves are the ones that are going to succeed. They will attract the best talent, they will retain them for longer and they will benefit from their contribution and loyalty. In my experience most businesses and the majority of leaders don't know how to create these environments. That is why the skillset and experience that Ronan brings is of such inherent importance to any organization that chooses to work with him. That is because he can accelerate the creation of the aforementioned cultural conditions that allow people to thrive individually and collectively. Ronan has over the last decade worked across elite sport, with young people and adults to hone a skill set that is very rare and highly valuable. If you are a smart leader and want the type of environment in which your people can thrive and do their best work then Ronan is the best investment you could possibly make."
"Ronan's session was like nothing any of the staff on the Global Business Solutions team here at Google had experienced before. Ronan seamlessly unlocked communication bottlenecks, and forged a genuine sense of team purpose and connection. The wider team left feeling refreshed, unified and optimistic. The overwhelming feedback was that this session was significantly impactful on a personal and professional level."
"I’ve been lucky enough to work with Ronan on several projects, and I always leave in awe of his abilities. Ro manages to balance a holistic and caring approach, with evidence and research to back up what he talks about.
He is a rare breed of facilitator that can deliver exceptionally high quality, impactful work right from day one. Ro draws on his experience working with youth to make his work engaging but is versed enough in business for it to be relevant to adults in the corporate and sporting arenas.
He captivates the rooms (or screens) with his facilitation, but somehow manages to make the participants the centre of all his work. A trait that takes incredible skill and years of hard work to successfully navigate.
Can’t speak highly enough of him; I am a better facilitator, and man, because of Ronan Conway."
