O’Reardon
 
Originally from Ireland, Donal O’Reardon has worked in Europe and North America over the past fifteen years. Donal’s background is in education and he has worked at every level from grade school through university in five countries. Donal has worked with a host of public and private sector clients including government ministries, municipal government, financial institutions and educational organisations. He has taught mediation, negotiation and dispute resolution in the Graduate Certificate course at York University. In addition, he publishes regularly on these topics. Donal’s approach emphasises Emotional Intelligence and best communication practice for professional development. “Communication” here means much more than how we relate to others, it also means how we talk and listen to ourselves. Donal’s approach is based on the principle that all interpersonal skills are founded on “intrapersonal” skills, the ability to look at and listen to what’s inside us.
