Brian Deegan's corporate career was marked by many accomplishments and he has now decided to use his international experience and knowledge to help small-to-medium sized enterprises in Ireland

/24-7PressRelease/ - LAS VEGAS, NV, June 04, 2008 - Paul Fagan, ActionCOACH Master Licensee, has named Brian Deegan as the newest ActionCOACH franchisee in Ireland.

His office will be based in County Limerick covering the entire North Munster Region of Ireland, including Tipperary, Limerick, Clare and North Cork.

Prior to joining ActionCOACH, Deegan worked as a Managing Director in the ophthalmic lens industry with Essilor International and managed companies from 10 to 500 employees in Ireland, UK and South Africa.

Deegan had a memorable corporate career with many accomplishments.

In his last position as Managing Director of Johnston Press in Munster Ireland, Deegan successfully integrated four acquisitions into the corporate environment.

Deegan was also instrumental in restructuring two loss-making UK acquisitions into one profitable business within one year.

"I developed strong management teams in each company I worked at," Deegan said.

Deegan was looking for a positive career change when he came across an advertisement posted by Paul Fagan.

"Having worked as a change management agent in six companies over a 15-year period, I felt the need for a change in my own life as well," he said.

Deegan feels that business coaching is in its infancy in Ireland with a great potential for growth.

"The franchise arrangement provides me with the support to grow my own business while retaining more control over how, where, when and with whom I work," Deegan said.

Paul Fagan's passion for the business and his desire to succeed helped strengthen Deegan's decision to join ActionCOACH.

"ActionCOACH is very well-organized and clear in its direction. My discussions with Paul were very informative and professional," he said.

Currently Chairman of the Hospital Herbertstown GAA Club, Deegan is a member of Tidy Towns Committee, the Tipperary Golf Club and the Hospital Lawn Tennis Club.

He is also a member of the IBEC -Irish Business and Employers Federation, and belongs to the University of Limerick Alumni Association.
