RONAN HARRINGTON
International Keynote Speaker
I'm an acclaimed keynote speaker that advises world leading companies on how to create resilient, high performing teams.
My innovative approach boosts productivity and wellbeing, helping companies to create sustainable standards of excellence during times of demanding change.
It’s the reason industry leaders trust me to work with their people.
Ronan is a world class resilience teacher. His ability to connect leaders with themselves and each other is rare.
John Waterfield
HEAD OF STRATEGIC RELATIONSHIPS
I blend the cutting edge science of resilience with memorable take aways to boost individual and team performance, all delivered with humour and flair.
This makes me the ideal speaker for conferences, leadership off-sites and all hands webinars where clients want to catalyse a shift to a culture of sustainable high performance.
Ronan gave the key-note speech to all 200 of our Senior Financial Services Consulting Leaders on the topic of ‘resilience versus endurance’. Our Leadership Team are still talking about it and it has prompted a very healthy and open discussion about how we build resilience for ourselves and our people.
Thank you Ronan – you were brilliant.
HEAD OF FINANCIAL CONSULTING
Scott Wheatley
Industry leaders work with me because I have a gift for inspiring audiences.
What truly sets me apart is the ability to inspire through my own story - a jaw dropping cautionary tale about the pressures of leadership. As a former futurist to the British Foreign Office, I navigated the corridors of power before being diagnosed with a lifetime chronic pain condition.
It's through the stories of others that we come to a deeper understanding of ourselves. By sharing myself fully, I reveal what it truly means to be resilient.
Ronan gave a very inspiring and engaging speech and touched everybody in the room – intellectually and emotionally. He organised a very good mix between presenting facts & figures, giving practical tips and initiating short breakout-sessions to ensure full engagement of all participants.
Ronan fulfilled 100% of our expectations.

Keynote and Workshop Topics
I left Ronan’s talk truly speechless and determined to take better care of myself. He tells his resilience story through sharing deeply moving lived experiences, anchoring it with compelling science, breathing it to life with humour and relatability – a rare, powerful alchemy that goes so far beyond a typical “keynote speaker” it seems a miss to even refer to it as that. Essential. Inspirational. Human.
