About
Dermot Goode
From a paralysing fear of public speaking to "the best speaker in his field in the country".
No stranger to public speaking
Dermot Goode is the leading health insurance expert in Ireland. His work includes dealing with the media, radio and television interviews, presenting at corporate conferences and national healthcare events, and speaking to audiences large and small around the country. He has a passion for public speaking and has been described as “the best speaker in his field in the country”.
Public speaking wasn’t always easy for him. As he tells everyone he coaches, it took him years to overcome a total fear of public speaking which at times was paralysing.
A unique feature of his coaching is that he will teach you practical techniques that really work, and, more importantly, show you the ones that don’t. He designed the SUAS (Stand Up And Speak) programme to share his knowledge and experience with everyone who wants to overcome their fear of public speaking.
