Program Director

Fiona’s deep knowledge and clear insight were as expected but her ability to connect with the audience with ease, emphatically foster real dialogue whilst being succinct in her carefully chosen words, sets her apart from other speakers

Eoin Kennedy, Founder CongRegation.ie

I have worked with Fiona a number of times and have always been very impressed with her. On stage Fiona has an amazing presence, engaging everyone from the start and presenting really great content. The briefing process was always very easy, with Fiona asking all the right questions and giving a lot of ideas and input.I would have no hesitation recommending her

Global Head of Events Investment Management Industry

We were delighted to welcome Fiona English as a keynote speaker at our recent Women in Entrepreneurship and on Boards forum. Fiona delivered an outstanding session on becoming the purposeful leader, which deeply resonated with our audience of female CEOs, founders, investors, and non-executives. Her talk was not only insightful and thought-provoking, but also incredibly engaging. The feedback we received from attendees was overwhelmingly positive — many cited her session as a true highlight of the day. From a collaborator's perspective, Fiona was an absolute pleasure to work with — professional, responsive, and genuinely passionate. I would highly recommend her as a keynote speaker for any organisation or event looking to drive purposeful impact and meaningful leadership dialogue

Keynotes

Keynote by Fiona English :

Purpose Is A Choice / Becoming The Purposeful Leader

In a world awash with purpose statements, how do you ensure you or your organisation can have the impact you want?

Many leaders and organisations begin with the wrong question when it comes to purpose. They focus on "what" they will do rather than "who" they will become. Purpose is inherently human. It can’t be outsourced to your business. Your business may have a purpose statement, but it can only be you as its leaders who can breathe life into that statement through your choices.

Purpose, at its core, is about choice. Purpose asks us what matters to us – as people, as citizens of our world, as employees and leaders in business. What do you really value? And how does that understanding infuse your decision-making process? In this keynote, Fiona challenges audiences to reflect on three fundamental questions which help make purpose real in their life and work.

Clarity Over Confidence: Allowing Your Leadership Style To Emerge

There are many confident leaders in the world today. Confidence may help you fit in, but our shared challenges mean we need leaders willing to stand out, make meaningful choices, and drive purpose-driven change.

In the future when it comes to leadership, we will care less about confidence, position or power when it comes to leadership. We will care about clarity. Clarity around what brings a sense of purpose to your life, about who you want to be and the impact you wish to have. It is from this place of clarity; you will make purpose-driven choices and do your best work in the world. It is from clarity, you allow your leadership style to emerge.

Becoming More Human: Spiritual Wisdom For The Modern Age

In an era shaped by rapid advancements in AI, it’s time to double down on what makes us distinctly human. But what makes us most human is not supported by the world we live in. We are spending more time working, less time outdoors and in nature, and less time with each other. The pace of modern life is not made for us, and uncertainty is no longer an occasional challenge; it’s a constant and likely to increase. At the root of so many of our struggles is disconnection—disconnection from ourselves, from one another, and from the planet. Without conscious intention, we are pulled further from ourselves and the deep connection to nature, community, and meaning that we all crave.

Drawing on global wisdom traditions, her research on spirituality and meaning, and her own lived experience, Fiona offers grounded, real-world guidance and tools for reconnecting to what makes us whole. This talk is an invitation to become not only more human—but more connected to what matters and more wise and embodied in a world that too often pulls us away from ourselves.
