Warren Barry

Warren Barry is an award-winning pioneer in the field of human resources who studies the implications of counterintuitive work environments on individuals and organizations as a whole. He brings insights to employees, employers, and human resource professionals alike which leads to higher purpose and prosperity.

Warren works with organizations: executive officers, human resource management, and managerial teams to reveal the internal potential of the human capital they already possess along with the risks and costs of conative stress.

Warren is a highly rated resource speaker for TEC Canada and Vistage International and has conducted presentations across North America for a variety of organizations. He focuses on building healthy workplace environments by embracing one’s self and others, and explores the connection between chronic pain and working counterintuitively.

Warren engages audiences about how being the odd duck can be one of your greatest assets, and helps you realize that being a misfit is one of your greatest strengths. With his case studies on how working counterintuitively in your job can create chronic pain, he provides insights and examples on how not to cook your goose. By empowering unique people, you will understand that being yourself ain’t so bad, in fact, it's pretty awesome.

How do we get our teams engaged, happy, and productive? We get our ducks in a row, that’s how. Not every flock needs the same geese. There are 135 varieties of geese in the world, and the world needs all of them - just as the world needs the talents of everyone to be successful. We must understand, respect and appreciate what each person brings to the flock in order to be truly successful. Together we Better The Pond. Let’s discuss.
