Patrick Dunn

Patrick Dunn is a keynote speaker, workshop facilitator, and author whose work sits at the intersection of operational resilience and human leadership. Drawing on 30 years leading global teams through some of the most consequential crises of the past three decades — September 11th, Hurricane Katrina, Superstorm Sandy — he helps leaders and organizations build the capacity to perform under pressure without burning out the people doing the work.
He is the author of Stop Leading on Empty (Archway/Simon & Schuster), Book 1 of the Lead with Soul series, and delivers keynotes and workshops for corporate, healthcare, financial services, and association audiences. His international credits include the Nexus Global Leadership Forum in Warsaw, KecomeX Nairobi Leadership Summit, and EU Parliament subcommittees.
Before the stage, Patrick spent his career at organizations including Gilead Sciences, SunGard, and Capgemini, where he led enterprise-level resilience programs across four continents. He is a lifetime Rotarian, a three-time NCAA Division I All-American, and studied narrative craft under Stephen King at the University of Maine.
Patrick is based in Reno, Nevada.
