Workplace Conflict, Leadership & Emotional Intelligence Keynote Speaker
Frederick, Maryland
Helping Leaders Stay Grounded, Clear, and Constructive When Tension Rises Dr. Irvine Nugent, CSP, PCC, is a workplace conflict keynote speaker, executive coach, workplace mediator, author, and co-founder of Conflict EQ. He helps leaders understand what conflict does to them before they realize it—and how to stop it from driving what they do next. Irvine often describes himself as a recovering conflict coward. Growing up in Northern Ireland during the Troubles, he witnessed what happens when division hardens, communication breaks down, and people stop seeing one another clearly. Those experiences sparked a lifelong curiosity about why conflict escalates—and what helps people remain constructive when tension rises. Conflict Isn’t the Problem. Capacity Under Pressure Is. Through compelling stories, sharp humor, research-based insight, and practical tools, Irvine helps leaders build Conflict EQ—the capacity to think clearly, manage their reactions, stay connected, and act constructively when tension creates additional pressure. Audiences leave better prepared to recognize when conflict is beginning to take the wheel, regain choice under pressure, navigate difficult conversations, and make a constructive next move. Irvine holds a Ph.D. in Management, with research focused on leadership behavior in high-pressure environments. He is a Certified Speaking Professional, Professional Certified Coach, and certified workplace mediator. He is also the author of Leadership Lessons From the Pub.

Oro Valley, Arizona

Garrett J. Braunreiter helps high-achieving men over 50 - executives, business owners, and professionals - rebuild the strength, energy, and confidence they sacrificed for success, so the second half of life becomes their strongest chapter. He brings 40+ years in and around fitness - 15 of them coaching - a degree in Exercise Science, and 21 years in specialty pharmaceutical sales: a career of travel, targets, and constant pressure that mirrors the lives of the men he now coaches. Deaf since age two, Garrett taught himself to lip-read, refused every excuse, and still fell apart physically anyway. That's his whole thesis: even an unshakeable mindset needs a system. That system is the ARMOR Method - a five-pillar consistency operating system that rebuilds the body from the legs up and makes the change stick. As a Certified Tiny Habits Coach, Garrett engineers consistency rather than preaching it. To bring Garrett to your stage, book a call or email him directly.

Trust Speaker | The PACK Framework | Lessons from 35 Off-Leash Dogs
Canada
4.9
(14)
I help leaders and corporate teams build trust so people speak up, stay and give their best, using lessons from 35 off-leash dogs. You can't control 35 dogs in a forest. You can only earn their trust. For nearly a decade, I walked packs of up to 35 dogs off-leash through a 175-acre forest in Quebec, five walks a week. More than 2,000 walks. I never lost a dog. Not because I controlled them, but because they chose to stay. Many of my clients are CEOs and partners in large organisations. Watching them at home, and their dogs in the pack, I kept seeing the same truth: people, like dogs, follow those they trust, not those who control them. When trust is low, people stop speaking up, problems stay hidden, and good people leave. When trust is high, teams move faster and stay. I teach this as the PACK Framework: Presence, Assurance, Consistency, Keep steady. Host of the Living and Learning with Dogs podcast · Toastmasters member · Founder of Canivie · Author of an upcoming book on relationships.

Trauma-Informed Care Emotional Safety, Wellness Strategist for Health & Leadership Systems
Milwaukee, Wisconsin

(14)
Dr. Melanie Gray is a nationally recognized expert in Trauma-Informed Leadership, a visionary wellness strategist, and a powerful voice for change in high-stress professions. With a career spanning more than two decades, she has dedicated her life to healing the systems and people who are tasked with caring for others. As a doctorate-prepared nurse leader, author, keynote speaker, and confidence coach, Dr. Gray stands at the intersection of clinical practice, academic rigor, and heartfelt advocacy, championing a new paradigm of leadership rooted in psychological safety and holistic well-being. Her journey into nursing was seeded in childhood. As a proud baby boomer and African American woman, Dr. Gray came of age during a time when career paths for women were profoundly limited. Yet, within those constraints, she found a calling. Her mother, a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), often brought a young Melanie to work, and those early experiences left an indelible mark. She witnessed firsthand the quiet confidence, profound compassion, and life-changing impact of nurses. As she later reflected, "It planted a seed long before I had language for purpose." Choosing nursing from the available options, what began as a practical choice for a stable career quickly transformed into a lifelong passion. Driven by a relentless pursuit of knowledge, Dr. Gray became the first in her family to earn a terminal degree. As a first-generation college student, she earned a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) in Nursing Education, followed by a PhD in E-learning and Curriculum Design from Northcentral University. This academic foundation, built upon years of frontline experience as a Registered Nurse, equipped her with a rare and profound understanding of human behavior, organizational dynamics, and the science of effective learning. Dr. Gray’s clinical and leadership career is distinguished by her pioneering work in operationalizing trauma-informed care. As the Program Manager for Trauma-Informed Care at Aurora Sinai Medical Center, she spearheaded the development and implementation of a hospital-wide, interdisciplinary delivery model. This initiative was not merely a program but a cultural transformation, creating a more supportive and effective environment for both patients and staff. Her leadership was instrumental in demonstrating that when caregivers are cared for, the quality of patient care naturally elevates. Recognizing that the burnout and moral injury she witnessed were systemic issues, Dr. Gray expanded her mission beyond the hospital walls. She founded Melanie Gray Solutions, a consultancy dedicated to helping organizations break free from the cycles of stress and exhaustion. She became a highly sought-after keynote speaker, translating her insights into powerful presentations for healthcare systems, educational institutions, and other mission-driven organizations. Her message is amplified through her acclaimed book, "REGULATE FIRST, LEAD SECOND: Master Your Biology. Transform Your Leadership," and her popular podcast, "Code Calm," where she shares practical, evidence-based strategies for managing stress and leading with authentic confidence. At the heart of her teaching is the signature STOP-IT™ framework, a proprietary methodology that bridges neuroscience, trauma-informed care, and organizational psychology. This framework provides a tangible toolkit for emotional regulation and stress mitigation, empowering individuals to move from a state of reaction to one of regulation. It is a testament to her unique ability to distill complex science into actionable strategies that create sustainable change for individuals and organizations alike. Beyond her national platform, Dr. Gray is a fierce advocate for diversity, inclusion, and community empowerment. She has been a dedicated member of the Milwaukee Chapter of the National Black Nurses Association for over 20 years, serving as its 11th President. Her commitment to service is further exemplified by her long-standing involvement with Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc., the Junior League of Milwaukee, and Professional Dimensions. She also contributes to community-based research as a member of the Center for Translational Science at the Medical College of Wisconsin. In recognition of her profound impact, she has been honored as a Notable Hero in Health Care and is a recipient of the prestigious Milwaukee Excellence Award. Today, Dr. Gray continues to expand her influence as Dr. Melanie Gray, The Confidence Coach, with a special focus on empowering midlife women to reclaim their energy, overcome burnout, and lead purposeful lives. Through her coaching, her "Fearless Party With a Purpose" events, and her unwavering encouragement, she helps women reframe midlife not as a season of retreat, but one of reinvention and flourishing. Her mission is clear and resonant: healing people heals organizations. Dr. Melanie Gray’s life and work are a testament to that truth, leaving a legacy of empowerment, resilience, and transformative leadership.
