PSA Ireland – November Gathering
22 November | 08:30 – 14:00 | Maldron Hotel, Dublin
As the year draws to a close, PSA Ireland invites you to celebrate the heart of speaking: sparking change, motivating action, and leaving a lasting legacy. November is the perfect time to reflect, refine, and reset so you can step into 2026 with clarity and purpose.
Programme highlights
- Keynote: Patrick Mercie: his trademark energy and practical insight on stripping away limiting beliefs so you can show up with conviction and impact. 
- Practical segment (by me): I’ll share microphone techniques as part of the end-of-year line-up. A hands-on session to help you sound confident and consistent, whether you’re on stage, on radio, or on Zoom. More details to follow. 
- Plus: lively interaction, spot prizes, networking, and that signature PSA blend of inspiration and camaraderie. 
To round off the year in festive spirit, there’s an optional seasonal lunch after the meeting (not included in the ticket price; payable separately).
Come to connect, celebrate, and refine your speaking journey as we close 2025 with purpose.
