Caroline Casey

Caroline Casey is a celebrated social entrepreneur and campaigner who has transformed the global conversation regarding disability within the corporate sector. As the founder of The Valuable 500 and the #valuable movement, she works tirelessly to ensure that the potential of over one billion people living with disabilities is recognised by the world's most influential business leaders. Her career began as a management consultant at Accenture, and she has since established significant initiatives such as the Kanchi foundation and the Ability Awards to promote inclusive hiring and best practices. Her achievements have earned her international acclaim, including being the first Irish individual named a Young Global Leader by the World Economic Forum. She has also contributed her expertise as an advisor to the Clinton Global Initiative. Dealing with ocular albinism and registered as legally blind—a fact she only discovered at the age of seventeen—she draws upon her unique personal history to challenge conventional thinking about diversity and capability. Organisations book Caroline for her extraordinary ability to bridge the gap between social purpose and business strategy. She provides a sophisticated perspective on resilience and leadership, helping audiences understand how to integrate inclusivity into the core of their operations for more sustainable success. On stage, Caroline Casey is best known for talks on Resilience. Audiences leave with a clear, practical view of the subject rather than a generic overview — every keynote is shaped around the brief and the room. Their work resonates with leaders across Charity & Non-Profit and Social Impact & Advocacy, where the themes translate directly into team decisions, customer experience and growth strategy. Caroline Casey is regularly booked for Motivational Speaker and Business Speaker, adapting tone, length and format to suit the event — from a 20-minute opener to a full conference keynote with Q&A. Based in Ireland, Caroline Casey travels internationally for engagements.
