Clients Say

Clancy Construction Lolo

'Gerry Duffy is a regular visitor to our business, both for motivational talks and strategy days. Most recently, Gerry designed a day long workshop for our senior management team aimed specifically at strengthening organisational culture. What I like most about working with Gerry is the effort he puts into understanding the issues facing the business before he designs the workshops. At the end of this particular day, we had ten actions to work on as a group moving forward. Less than one year later, and ORS had been voted in the Top 25 Best Workplaces in Ireland. This alone speaks volumes about the role that Gerry has played in our success.'

'Thank you Gerry for your great insight into Leadership as part of our recent workshop. Your talk was inspiring, thought provoking and full of practical advice for our leaders on how to reflect on their own personal Leadership style and develop further here. The practical exercises you used proved to be a great way for our Leaders to truly experience ‘Leadership’ and ‘Followership’ in a way that will stick with them and make a difference to how they lead their teams in the future. Overall we found your involvement in our event to be very engaging and motivating and definitely contributed significantly to the high energy held in the room throughout. Thank you.'

'Just a short note on your stewarding of our conference. You got the continuity and emcee part of the conference spot on and your keynote presentation at the conclusion of the day had the rapt attention of the audience. You really nailed it and played a key part in ensuring our supplier conference was a success. When suppliers said to me, they would have paid to come and listen, we must have been doing something right.'

''I wish to thank you most sincerely for your motivational speech at our company’s 20th  anniversary. The feedback I received back from employees was unbelievably positive and even a month later they are still talking about those mesmerizing 40 minutes. It was without question the highlight of the day. I have no doubt that when memories of the day fade it will only be your speech that the audience will continue to remember.''

''How do you teach your group that they can reach any goal to which they aspire? How do you instill confidence to such a level that they expect only the highest standards from themselves? One step is to give your team the gift of listening to Gerry Duffy, a regular guy who has achieved extraordinary achievements. Gerry connects at a human level and imparts practical steps that convince us all that which we can achieve that which we believe we can. I can honestly say that Gerry Duffy is the best motivational speaker I have ever heard.''

'I wanted to thank you again for the time you spent with the team on Wednesday afternoon and let you know how valuable we all felt it was for us - both as a team and individually. I couldn't have wished for a better connection between what you had to say and what we as a team were focusing on over the two days: re-inventing ourselves, moving out of our comfort zones, and driving to a new level of performance. Your presentation resonated strongly with everyone in the group as it was relevant, authentic, and low on "management speak". In fact, right up to the end of the meeting, we were referring back to points you had made. I will certainly be recommending you for future opportunities.'

'Gerry Duffy presented to my Global Operations and Supply Chain leadership team. A fascinating, thought-provoking evening was achieved in no small part by Gerry’s preparation in advance. He reached out to understand the purpose of the meeting, what we were trying to achieve, and how he could best assist and tailored his presentation accordingly to meet our needs. Some great practical advice as to how to turn personal commitment into focused actions to deliver on what we are required. I could not recommend Gerry highly enough.'

'I just wanted to say how much everyone enjoyed your presentation. The business messages you delivered were absolutely appropriate for our key conference theme of looking into ourselves as individuals. Your experiences were a fantastic metaphor to get the point over to our entire management team and I can assure you it was the main topic of conversation at our evening event and since we returned to business. Your presentation was emotional, inspiring and highly motivational and I will certainly recommend you to other business associates.'

'I want to extend a massive thank you for facilitating two motivational Group Sessions with our colleagues on site, plus a lunchtime workshop and a session with our leadership team. Feedback from our colleagues was extremely positive and you created a notable sense of cross-functional camaraderie. After you left, we talked for days about what we enjoyed most, and what we personally got out of your sessions and we had a good laugh at ourselves too. We really appreciated your engaging, down-to-earth style with many commenting that you have a great sense of humor and a method of understanding people’s ways without judging. I have placed your book in the Library for any colleague wishing to borrow it to do so. It is proving very popular so far. '
