    In October 2024, John Saunders became Chairman of St. Louis-based public relations firm FleishmanHillard, having served as CEO for the previous nine years. Not many Irish people get to head global businesses based out of the U.S., but John Saunders did just that. From humble beginnings as a sports presenter with RTE, he has carved out a stellar career in the public relations industry. In this latest episode of The Renatus Podcast, John talks to host Greg Dilger about the PR business generally, as well as his own firm, FleishmanHillard, and its multibillion-dollar parent company, Omnicom. He offers fascinating insights into the evolving role of PR in a digital world, including the phenomenal growth of the influencer space, the use of AI, and the future of work.

    “We deeply understand what our customers want” - with Peter Jackson, CEO of Flutter Entertainment plc

    Peter Jackson, CEO of Flutter Entertainment In this episode of the Renatus podcast, host Greg Dilger speaks to Peter Jackson, the CEO of Flutter Entertainment, the world’s largest sports betting and iGaming operator. Peter has been CEO since 2018, having originally joined as a Non-Exec Director of what was then called Paddy Power Betfair in 2013. The acquisition of FanDuel has opened up huge opportunities for Flutter in the US and the recent decision to move their primary listing to New York makes total sense in light of this. Peter talks about the strategic logic of the FanDuel deal and how its culture fits so well with Flutter’s ‘challenger mindset’. He also talks about what they call the 'Flutter Edge' which is leveraging their collective strengths - i.e., people, technology and capital - to compete better across their portfolio of businesses. At the end of the conversation, Mark Flood the co-founder of Renatus gives his key takeaways from the podcast. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    The farmer’s son who took Kerry global - with Stan McCarthy former CEO of Kerry Group

    Stan McCarthy, CEO of Kerry Group  In this latest Renatus podcast, host Greg Dilger talks to former Kerry Group CEO Stan McCarthy about the rise and globalisation of the Kerry Group. Underneath the calm and modest demeanour is a very accomplished operator with a great temperament for business. It is not at all difficult to see why the Kerry Group thrived under his leadership. Nowadays, following his retirement from Kerry, Stan uses all of those attributes on a completely different stage as Non-Exec Chairman of Ryanair - Europe’s largest airline (by passenger numbers). His smooth transition from food to aviation is no surprise to those who know him well.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    The Enduring Legacy of GPA - Ireland’s Aircraft Leasing Pioneer - with Paddy Blaney

    Paddy Blaney, former CEO of GPA (Guinness Peat Aviation) In this latest Renatus podcast host, Greg Dilger talks to former GPA (Guinness Peat Aviation) Chief Executive, Paddy Blaney about all things GPA  - the ambition, the rise, the fall, the restructuring and of course, its legendary founder the late Tony Ryan. Several former GPA staff subsequently founded and worked for other Irish-based aircraft lessors, such as Avolon, Pembroke, SMBC and Aergo. Indeed the world’s largest aircraft leasing company Aercap is currently led by another GPA alumnus - Aengus Kelly. The availability of this calibre of highly trained executives is one of the core reasons, along with a favourable corporate tax environment, Ireland has become the global hub of the commercial aircraft financing and leasing industry as we know it today.
