Who is IrishmanSpeaks?
Conor Cunneen is an Irishman, happily exiled in Chicago where he says the natives are friendly, Cubs fans are quite simply nuts, and he has been force-fed more corned beef and green beer than he ever had in Ireland!

Whether presenting on-site or virtually, Conor’s Mission is to Improve People, Performance & Productivity – with a Smile! “My goal is to leave my audience with a smile on the face, a spring in the step AND memorable actionable takeaways to make the world and workplace just a little better.” (As an Irishman, Conor is particularly proud to be a recipient of the Presidents Gold Medal for Volunteer Service for the work he does with the unemployed.)
From Harley-Davidson to Helsinki! From Virginia to Virtual!
Blessed with an Irish gift of storytelling and impish humor, Conor’s clients range from Harley-Davidson to Helsinki, from Virginia and now to Virtual, as he provides down to earth, implementable programs to improve the workplace across all industries and functions.
This lyrical Irishman combines the wit and wisdom that won Chicago Humorous Speaker of the Year with C-Suite experience from Ireland, UK and USA to present customized programs that get rave reviews from clients like:
“Conor, in close to 30 years of association work, I have never seen a speaker as well received as you.”

THE GIFT OF GAB: GOALS, ATTITUDE, BEHAVIOR
“Conor, our sales team thoroughly enjoyed your “Gift of GAB” presentation. Our group is not easily entertained and informed at the same time, especially early in the morning! They came away enthused and with a fresh set of tools to help them be successful. Throughout the rest of our meeting, I heard people using quotes from your presentation such as “what do I want my attitude to be”. That’s a sure sign that you connected in just the right way. We look forward to having you work with our team again in the near future.”
The Irish are famous for the Gift of GAB, but in this insightful, inspirational and frankly, often hilarious presentation, Conor Cunneen shows that everyone through Goals, Attitude, Behavior can adopt and adapt the Gift of GAB to create an excellent environment and improved workplace. This award-winning speaker and raconteur provides carefully researched material (and sometimes a wee dollop of blarney!) to illustrate the power of Goals, Attitude, Behavior to Improve People, Performance & Productivity
Conor promises your audience will LEARN, LAUGH and LEAVE with a smile on their face, a spring in their step AND with memorable, implementable concepts and ideas to improve themselves, colleagues and workplace.
ADD THE HUMOR. ADD THE SALES
“Against the assault of laughter, nothing can stand.” Mark Twain
“I have never heard a speaker with the double whammy combination of humor and substance which I heard from you today.” MHM Chicago
You know the scene! The presenter droned on and on and on and on. Finally an audience member throws a shoe at said speaker, misses, and hits one of the other panelists on stage who responds “Please, hit me again. I can still hear him!!”
Chicago Humorous, Motivational Leadership and Communications speaker combines business and communication skills from Ireland, UK and USA with the humor that won Chicago Humorous Speaker of the Year to present a program that, bottom line, WILL make you a substantially better communicator and sales presenter.
