Keith Barry speaks about
Confidence and Performance
The European Mentoring and Coaching Council (EMCC) hosted their 25th
annual conference at there Dublin Convention Centre in 2019. The opening
keynote was delivered by hypnotist, illusionist and magician Keith Barry.
We can learn
all the sales
techniques in the
world… but unless
our mindset is
correct we will
fail as coaches.
Most people know him as an entertainer,
a magician and a mentalist but what a
lot of people don’t know is that he’s a
hypnotherapist and a scientist, graduating
with a first class honours degree in
cosmetic science from Galway University.
He’s a subconscious mind specialist and
helps people reprogram their mind for
performance.
Coaching for Performance in Business
and Sport
At this moment Keith works as a life coach,
executive coach, performance coach and a
mentor to business people and high-end
athletes. Because of confidentiality we
rarely hear about those clients. But one of
those clients is Rory Best, who he has been
coaching for performance. Although Roy
Best is retiring from professional rugby, he
has recorded his best season in terms of
player statistics and performance.
Mind Magic was the title of the keynote
Keith Barry delivered at the EMCC
Conference in the Convention Centre in
Dublin 2019.
Part of Keith Barry’s presentation at the
EMCC Conference was that people will make
active change today. “Very often after I speak
at an event like this I get some amazing
emails from people whose businesses have
skyrocketed just from a moment either at
one my my talks, or Paula’s talks, but there
is a moment that happens – something
clicks with them – and then ultimately it
completely changes their life. And that’s
what this is all about for me”.
