Workplace Connection

Bringing together leaders from across the globe is not easy. For us as a remote-first organisation, face-to-face 'Together Days' are crucial. Ronan played a pivotal role in making our leadership offsite a real success.

From the outset, Ronan invested time in understanding what we wanted to achieve, challenging our thinking where needed and drawing on his experience to help shape a day that delivered real value. His facilitation style was exceptional. He had complete control of the room without ever dominating it. Instead, he created an environment where people felt comfortable contributing openly, listening deeply, and connecting authentically.

By the end of a full and intensive day, our leaders were exhausted in the best possible way, energised, inspired, and far more connected as a team. We look forward to continuing to work with Ronan

"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."

Over the past number of years, H&MV Engineering has had the pleasure of working closely with Ronan Conway across a wide range of team and leadership development initiatives. Ronan has delivered numerous workshops for our apprentice groups, project leadership teams, and operational teams, consistently bringing energy, professionalism, and a genuine commitment to developing people.

What sets Ronan apart is his ability to create an environment that encourages active participation and meaningful engagement. His facilitation style is highly effective, ensuring that every individual feels involved while keeping sessions focused, relevant, and impactful. Regardless of the audience or topic, Ronan has a unique ability to connect with people and adapt his approach to suit the group's needs.

Ronan's versatility is exceptional. Whether leading discussions on workplace safety, team building, leadership development, or organisational culture, he brings both credibility and practical insight that resonates with participants. His ability to tailor content and facilitate open, honest conversations has contributed significantly to the development of our teams and leaders.

The feedback from our employees has consistently been positive, reflecting the impact of his workshops and coaching sessions.

We greatly value the partnership we have built with Ronan and look forward to continuing to work together as H&MV grows and develops its people and leadership capability in the years ahead

"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."
