Empowering Businesses with AI-Driven Solutions & Bespoke CPD Training 

Formerly recognised as the UK’s leading consultant for developing women business experts (and some men), I now focus on empowering professionals to achieve global success. I specialise in helping individuals establish themselves as authorities in their fields, secure paid speaking engagements, and shine on stage both in the UK and internationally. A professional showreel is essential for attracting serious opportunities, as it sets you apart and ensures you are taken seriously by promoters and seminar organisers. Over the past decade, I am proud to have created over 500 bespoke showreels for satisfied clients, helping them elevate their impact and visibility. 

In today’s fast-evolving landscape, I utilise the transformative power of AI to help businesses stay competitive. My AI-driven solutions are designed to save time, enhance efficiency, and drive growth. As a sought-after expert, I deliver keynote presentations and tailored strategies at leading expos, corporate events, and conferences across the UK, Dubai, the USA, and beyond, ensuring every audience leaves with actionable insights. To further support attendees, I also provide complimentary takeaways, such as task sheets or digital resources, to help them implement the strategies shared. 

In 2025, I will introduce an AI Certification Programme to train professionals as certified AI consultants and globally recognised speakers. Incorporating CPD (Continuing Professional Development) accreditation, this initiative enhances credibility and appeal, particularly for the legal profession and other regulated sectors. Participants will gain the expertise and certification required to excel as industry leaders and take to the global stage. 

We are developing CPD-accredited courses to support professionals across various sectors, with a particular focus on the legal profession. These courses will cover key areas such as marketing, lead generation, creating professional video reels, public speaking, and AI integration for branding and efficiency—not on teaching legal professionals how to become better lawyers. My entrepreneurial and marketing expertise has now evolved to include AI branding and related strategies. Launching on 30th January 2025 in partnership with the London Chamber of Commerce, my free AI workshop at www.DesOConnorLaw.ai will include live events in London and virtual sessions, making it accessible to a global audience. I was recently featured in London Business Matters, where I shared strategies for the legal sector to harness AI—read the article at LCCI Law Article. 

I recently hosted my Des O’Connor AI Consultancy Launch – The Future is Here event on Saturday, 30th November 2024, in London. This exclusive gathering explored the transformative potential of AI across industries while featuring inspiring talks on personal and professional growth. With 233 attendees and 20 expert speakers, it was a full-day and evening experience filled with innovation, networking, and celebration. 

My goal is to empower professionals to thrive in an ever-changing world by offering unique platforms for visibility and growth. From bespoke training to global speaking opportunities, I am committed to equipping individuals and businesses with the tools they need to excel on the international stage.
