Kieran’s Speaker Reel


Kieran is an expert in Communication.

She delivers deep dive presentations, keynotes & workshops as well as panels, debates & facilitation. Her current keynote topics include:

BRAND

Positioning | Profile | Personal Brand

Unleash your Younique

Playing small does nothing for you… or the world. In a culture chasing the next big thing, leaders and high performers must decide: build it, or be it. In this energetic and practical presentation, Kieran shows you how to turn your unique perspective into a powerful brand, take a stand that matters, and draw the right people to you and your work.

INFLUENCE

Pitching | Persuasion | Presentation Skills

The Communication Equation

Influence isn’t about information, it’s about creating a unique emotional connection. This session rewires how leaders and teams sell ideas, shift behaviours, and win hearts (so minds willingly follow). Kieran arms you with tools to own the room - including The Communication Sequence, the 4 Humours, and a fresh framework for transforming information into engagement.

CONNECTION

People | Personality | Purpose

Collaborative Intelligence (We-Q)

Raise your collaborative intelligence (We-Q), and discover why (and how) collaborative cultures out-innovate, out-problem-solve and outperform (especially in challenging times). Kieran reveals how cognitive diversity is a genuine superpower, as well as how to harness it with the right team structures, systems and processes. All with practical strategies to boost connection, engagement and shared ownership, so your people don’t just work together… they win together.


 
 

HOSTING

Debates | Panels | Facilitation

Intelligence & Interactivity

Whether she’s providing expert commentary on a panel, facilitating a complicated conversation, or the captain of a great debate, Kieran brings brains and banter in equal measure. She mixes insights with entertainment so that learning sticks. If you need a voice to ignite dialogue, challenge assumptions and make your event the place to be, Kieran is the one you want on the mic.

She also co-hosts “The Round Table” with business partner Dan Gregory. It's got all of the best bits of a Great Debate, a Podcast and a Panel... with all of the boring bits removed. It's essentially a TV Comedy Panel Show, but designed for conference stages that allows your leaders, top talent and conference guests, to be the stars of the show and shine on stage. Learn more here.
