Kevin Kelly

CEO at Kevin Kelly Unlimited

Galway, Ireland

Internationally recognised Sales Motivational Speaker - Business Coach – Best Selling Author. I teach Entrepreneurs, Business owners and Sales Professionals how to close more sales.
With over 30 years of experience as a keynote speaker and business coach, I have helped clients master authentic engagement, compelling storytelling, and resilience to close more sales. It’s hard to believe I’m only 39, but my passion for sales and human behaviour remains undiminished!
Most often I am addressing Sales Kickoff Events around the globe delivering an 'interactive conversation' as opposed to a keynote to maximise engagement.
My clients include Microsoft, Million Dollar Round Table, GE Healthcare, Stryker, PMI, KPMG, HSBC, Adesco, and more.
I am also the best-selling author of multiple books on entrepreneurship, sales, and human achievement. My insights have been featured in media outlets worldwide, including Forbes, Adweek, Maeil in Korea, Sunday Times, Echo USA, ITV UK, RTE, and many others. In addition, I am delighted and honoured to have been selected to join Harvard Business Review's Advisory Council. Looking forward to making a positive contribution to this prestigious publication.
In my spare time, I enjoy volunteering, often taking on fundraising roles. To date, I have raised over €1.2 million without a budget.
I share all this not to boast— as they say in Ireland— but to reassure you that if you’re looking for help in sales, we can co-create something magical together.

How When you don't know how
On Stream Publications
October 24, 1997
The pioneering first motivational title from Kevin Kelly. In 1996, he challenged himself to write a best seller with a "D" in both of his English exams and no background in writing. The rest as they say is history - the book featuring topics like the predictability of human behaviour, the importance of a compelling vision, the need to reframe failure , mindfulness and much more became a mega best seller opening the door to a world deal.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO ANALYSE OTHERS? – INTERNATIONAL SPEAKER KEVIN KELLY
Kevin Kelly
March 20, 2024
In this video, motivational speaker Kevin Kelly says “Why do we need to talk about this? At the end of the day what your story is, screams at me without opening your mouth and you gotta make sure that your story is on the money. So I want to share a study that was done first at Harvard Business School. They showed students a 10 second video, and asked students to rate the professor on 15 different criteria. 85% were able to assess the speaker based on 15 different criteria on a 10 second silent video. Investigating further, they decided to show a 5 second silent video to a different group and again ask them to assess the professor based on 15 different criteria.

HOW TO MAKE THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM A REALITY – GAVAN HENNIGAN
Kevin Kelly
March 26, 2024
Gavan Hennigan: “Well, I was working for 10 years as a commercial diver all around the world. I was working for the last few years in the North Seafor a big company. I was kind of in a secure place within a job which is very hard and had a pension and a savings plan, a lot of investments and stuff like that. But the price of oil dropped there and we were made redundant and I suppose that led to my decision. There was always a niggling thing about me that things were a little bit too safe for me.”
