Who is David Meade?

As a leading voice in business, a broadcaster, and researcher in one of Ireland’s leading Universities, he’s dedicated his career to understanding what makes humans ‘tick’, and how it affects the way they think, feel, and act.

David is a first-class honours graduate from Ulster University’s School of International Business. His early business career in Europe and the USA included leadership and strategic roles in the Hotel, Real Estate, and Retail sectors, where he noticed that two individuals working in the same role can perform at dramatically different levels of success and effectiveness.  On returning to Ireland, he became a lecturer and award-winning researcher in business and strategy with one of Irelands leading Universities and has built his reputation as one of Europe’s most sought-after organisational facilitators.

David’s personal interests have always focused on aspects of popular psychology, consumer behaviour, and choice. By combining his professional background with his personal passions and his love of the performance of mentalism, David has become a highly regarded speaker with a reputation for an innovative style that forces audiences to think critically about the challenges around them.

An electrifying on-stage and virtual speaker

His boundless energy and dynamic delivery means today he’s one of Europe’s most in-demand speakers and thought leaders, in-person or on screen.

His motivational and thought-provoking keynote sessions have established his reputation as a cornerstone international speaker on how organisations can improve their company responsibilities and ethos, and his countless successful BBC One TV projects have made him a household name in his native Northern Ireland.

David is a leading corporate keynote speaker within the Business Community because of his research and academic background, and years of management and leadership experience. With his love of live performance and mentalism, and his interest in popular psychology, consumer behaviour, and choice, David has become a highly valued speaker with a reputation for an innovative style that forces audiences to think critically about the challenges around them.  Whether you experience David’s programmes in-person or virtually, clients and audiences agree the experience is unforgettable.

REAL IMPACT, REAL RESULTS

Delegates leave with a proven toolkit that they can apply and employ straight away to dramatically and sustainably improve their performance.

After years of research, David has learned how to make meaningful change happen to his clients. He works alongside clients to co-author his keynote session to include your company’s mission, values, and strategy. This will help resonate with attendees who will be empowered with a practical toolkit that they can use immediately in their role, irrespective of hierarchical level, that can make fundamental changes to how they see their organisation and their role in it.

By the end of the in-person or virtual event they’ll feel refreshed, excited and enthused about the opportunities that the future offers the individuals and teams that comprise it.

Without true ownership and accountability, no growth will occur.
