In an increaslingly polarised world it’s refreshing to meet an all rounded professional like Dr. Shirley Gallagher, one who champions pragmatic and inncovative approaches to meet the challenges facing us in the 21st Centruy. Whether it is a technology, policy, or community let initiative, Shirley has an inimitable style and approach to bring forth worthwhile outcomes. Over the past decade she has significantly helped our Tangible Leadership crusade to impact Business and Civic Leaders around the world to take practical and impactful steps to making a difference. Before I met Shirley, I did not fully understand the consequences of Climate Change and how we could incrementally face these challenges. She has been instrumental in educating and inspiring us all to gain a deeper understanding and to manifest leadership ineach of our professional and personal speeres of influence. She’s an Inspiration!

The Environmental Sciences Association of Ireland (ESAI) has been a client of ours for over 6 years. We worked closely with Shirley in her role as ESAI chairperson during that time to build, expand and maintain the organisations website and to develop the online conference booking system for the organisation.

Working with Shirley was (and is still) a fantastic experience, from her drive, ambition and enthusiasm for the organisation to the ideas she brings the goals she helped the organisation achieve. She has been a major influence in bringing the goals she helped the organisation achieve. She has been a major influence in bringing the ESAI the success and exposure it currently enjoys today and her ability to motivate people and get things done was key to that success.

I have no hesitation in recommending Shirley as a project manager and leader and look forward to working with her again.
