TALKS

In his entertaining talks, Ronan applies futuristic thinking to help audiences make sense of the deep shifts that are unfolding in the world, sharing the secret practices that pioneering leaders and organisations are using to overcome the cultural barriers to change.

OPTIMISM AFTER COVID

The world is awash with doom and gloom, but it's missing an understanding of how disruptive technology will drive civilisational change, all in the next decade. The apocalypse actually means the great unveiling, and there is much to be revealed. Have you assumptions upended, and feel optimistic once more.

LEADERSHIP FOR TIMES OF CRISIS

In times of crisis, we become protective and self serving when we need to step into the unknown together. Learn how today's pioneering leaders are inspiring a this shift by embodying a compelling story of where we are going and who we must become. An inspiring talk for organisations seeking to break out of inertia.

A GUIDE TO THE ROARING 20s

Disruptive technology is about to destroy every major incumbent industry. Learn how your organisation, job, country and region is under threat, and what you can do to avoid being on the losing end of this decade. A sobering but empowering talk that will leave you prepared.

Igniting Purpose

All major organisations will need to reimagine their products and business models to adapt to technological disruption. To foster this level of adaptation requires a galvanising purpose that can realign the whole organisation. Learn how they first movers in each industry are turning around the oil tanker.

From Overwhelm to Resilience

Unless we recognise the age we are in, and let go of incumbent mindsets, we will face collapse. There is a path for the courageous few, and it's called deep adaptation. This talk will walk you through the four pillars, given every leader and organisation the practical steps they need to take to be survive and thrive in the future.

HOW COVID IS SHIFTING OUR COLLECTIVE MINDSET

The Coronavirus is the first universal experience since World War Two, bringing many deep experiences that are rupturing the cultural psyche. Among the most notable are an awareness of systemic fragility, an experience of both active citizenship and every man for himself, a confrontation with mortality, a normalisation of isolation, and an even more heightened sense of disorientation. To survive this crisis, companies must attune to this cultural moment and forge a new relationship with an altered society.

RONAN CERTAINLY KNOWS HOW TO GRAB THE ATTENTION OF AN AUDIENCE AND TAKE THEM WITH HIM ON A JOURNEY OF DISCOVERY AND DISCUSSION
