Eileen McDargh

Speaker/Keynote for education, healthcare, finance, insurance, real estate, hospitality ...

"Since 1980, energizing the life of work and the work of your life (TM)."

With over 30 years of experience as a professional speaker, author, and management consultant, Eileen has worked with organizations and associations throughout the United States, Canada and the Pacific Rim.

Her ability to connect with mind, heart, and spirit makes her one of the most sought-after keynoters in North America!

She’s fun and funny; relevant and provocative...and very, very real.

Audiences leave saying, “she knows us!”

A note from Eileen:

Do you need someone who will connect—at a deep level—with your group? Who will listen to their challenges, reward their successes, and encourage them to be resilient? Let's engage the minds AND hearts of your group. Here's how your group will benefit from my 3-step approach:

1. Hold a conversation — I talk WITH your folks, rather than AT them. And I don't shy away from the tough topics on everyone's minds.

2. Reframe their perspective — It helps to know that work/life issues and adjusting to change are universal challenges. Accepting change with resilience is rewarding … no matter who you are.

3. Help them be ready to take action — Each of us has choices and personal accountability. I inspire and encourage all individuals to take action, live their lives, and find meaning in their work.

Together, we can make a difference in people's lives!
