Background

About Darragh Richardson

I develop and execute strategies for organisations with limited resources in a changing marketplace. I have a pragmatic and hands-on approach to building business and believe that talent management is the most (if not only!) important skill a manager should have. My interest is in building customer loyalty by not just meeting but exceeding client needs and in order to achieve this I want to work with people with knowledge, passion, and agility. For this reason I only hire exceptional talent and would always choose to work with a smaller high performance team rather than a larger more average group. I have a multinational business background having worked and studied in Ireland, Belgium and UK and working for companies based in USA, Belgium, South Africa, China, and UK. I founded Agile Networks in 2011 growing it to become the leading networking specialist in Ireland. Having built a profitable business around a focused niche against large incumbent rivals, in 2017 I sold Agile Networks to PlanNet21. This successful exit has reinforced my belief that business success is based on a close alignment of customers, employees, and suppliers all solving a common problem with a consistent plan.
