    Alec Drew, KBE shares his passion and knowledge around productivity and communications with business leaders both nationally and internationally. A major part of his 40 years in business was spent as Managing Partner of a highly successful branding agency where he worked with a wide range of CEO’s across all sectors. His insightful questioning and straight talking opened up new conversations, giving them fresh insights into their own organisations and uncovering valuable revenue streams that were previously overlooked. One strategy helped his clients achieve €3.23 billion in additional sales over a 5 year period.

    He regularly demonstrates the positive effect on shareholder value when all levels of an organisation speak the same language.

    As an international speaker he shows very quickly how a simple shift in mindset can have such a positive impact on the bottom line. He hates waffle, verbose explanations and jargon and his talks get straight to the point in a no nonsense but entertaining way. ’Hiding in Plain Sight - The Unintended Consequence of Technology on Profitability’ is a fresh and honest look at the 4th Industrial Revolution and the combined effects of technology, science and communications on productivity, wellbeing and shareholder value.

    He hosts a weekly radio show where business leaders from all sectors share seminal moments in their lives. Asking insightful questions he encourages guests to retrace their steps from the start of their career to where they are now and talk about key influencers that shaped their success. It gives listeners their weekly fix of encouragement to believe in themselves and demonstrates the abundance of resources that are available to help you complete your journey to destination SUCCESS.

    He is Past President of the Professional Speaking Association, Ireland, a member of the PSA and the Global Speaking Federation.
