In this episode of the EY CEO Outlook podcast, Danny McCoy, CEO of Ibec, discusses with host Richard Curran his early influences, his approach to leadership, and his vision for Ireland's economy.Danny McCoy's career showcases a journey driven by a passion for economics and a deep understanding of Ireland's evolving socio-economic landscape. Growing up in Tuam, County Galway, during challenging economic times, he witnessed firsthand the effects of industrial decline and small business struggles, which shaped his interest in economics.After a successful academic and analytical career at institutions like the Central Bank, ESRI, and Oxford, Danny transitioned to a leadership role at Ibec, where he has championed Irish business and employers through times of economic uncertainty and growth.They also discuss:Background and Career Path: Danny grew up in Tuam and was influenced by the economic challenges of the 1970s and 80s. He was inspired by the role of economists and his love of business subjects, led him to study in Galway and future roles in the Central Bank, ESRI, and academia.Joining Ibec: Danny joined Ibec in 2005 and became CEO in 2009 during Ireland's economic recession. He worked hard to integrate the “business” aspect as a strong counterpart to the “employer” identity within Ibec.Leadership Challenges and Achievements: Danny was instrumental in turning around Ibec's finances, addressing a pension deficit which transformed Ibec into a sustainable organisation. Today, Ibec has a €50 million turnover organisation with 330 staff, 10 locations, and 39 brands. He was a strong advocate for optimism during Ireland's economic recovery in the late 2000s.Economic Views: He highlights the need to focus on real issues and long-term solutions, such as energy, infrastructure, and social policies. He controversially challenges the idea of a “cost of living crisis,” suggesting support should go to those who truly need it.Leadership Philosophy: Danny believes good leadership means making bold decisions, focusing on long-term goals, and prioritising lasting impact over short-term approval and follows the motto: "No good turn goes unpunished."Future Outlook: Danny emphasises challenges like housing, sustainable energy, and global economic shifts. And urges Ireland to use its resources wisely and plan responsibly for the future.
The cost-of-living crisis is not only over, but it never happened, according to IBEC CEO Danny McCoy. We discuss this statement with Danny and also with Irish Examiner Columnist Fergus Finlay.

Joshua David Duhamel was born in Minot, North Dakota. Before his acting career, the football player studied biology and earned his Bachelor's degree at Minot State University with the intention of pursuing dentistry.At 26 years old, Josh worked in construction, and it was by chance that he got into showbusiness. Modeling eventually gave way to acting as Josh was asked to audition for the title character in The Picture of Dorian Gray (2004), from the novel by Oscar Wilde. Duhamel can be seen in Vince Gilligan and David Shore's CBS series, "Battle Creek." He is in production on four films: "Lost In The Sun," "Bravetown," "The Wrong Stuff," and "Beyond Deceit."Duhamel also starred alongside Hillary Swank and Emmy Rossum in the George C. Wolfe directed drama, "You're Not You." Duhamel also starred opposite Julianne Hough in Lasse Hallstrom's "Safe Haven," a drama based on the best-selling novel by Nicholas Sparks and the thriller "Scenic Route," which tells the story of two friends stranded in the desert. In addition, Duhamel was seen in the star-studded, ensemble comedy "Movie 43" alongside Emma Stone, Hugh Jackman, Halle Berry, Kate Winslet, Richard Gere among many others. Co-directed by Peter Farrelly and Patrik Forsberg, the film features various intertwining, raunchy tales.Other projects include Garry Marshall's "New Year's Eve" alongside Michelle Pfeiffer, Robert DeNiro, Halle Berry, and Hilary Swank and Michael Bay's "Transformers: Dark of the Moon," where he reprised his role of Captain William Lennox for the third installment of the franchise. Additional film credits include the romantic comedy "Life as We Know It" alongside Katherine Heigl, "Ramona and Beezus," "When in Rome" and "The Romantics." On television, Josh is best known for his role as Danny McCoy on the NBC crime drama "Las Vegas." Additionally, he lent his voice to Nickelodeon's Emmy Award-winning animated series "Fanboy & Chum Chum" and starred in several seasons of the long-running ABC soap opera "All My Children," in which he received three consecutive Daytime Emmy nominations.
Social dialogue and social partnership, in various forms, are common across Europe’s most successful economies and can play an important role in creating a fair and sustainable economic recovery here in Ireland.At a national level a new structure for Social Dialogue is required where issues may be discussed in a deliberative manner. Any proposal for Social Dialogue should involve Government, trade unions and employers, the community and voluntary sector, as well as farmers and environmental groups. Any structure for Social Dialogue that excludes any of these groups would be a recipe for ensuring thatmost of Ireland’s resources would be captured by those participating in the discussion. Such an approach would simply lead to deepening divisions and growing inequality in Ireland.In this episode, we look back to our Annual Social Policy Conference 2020 and hear from our panel on the need for a new Social Dialogue. Speakers include Danny McCoy of IBEC, Patricia King of ICTU, Damian McDonald of the IFA, Karen Ciesielski of the IEN and Seán Healy of Social Justice Ireland.

Ireland's Hospitality industry has evolved at an incredible pace in recent years. Traditionally associated with pubs, restaurants, and hotels, the sector has widened its reach rapidly and now includes new, valuable drivers including festivals, activity-based tourism, cultural and food experiences, and much more. This evolution has turned hospitality into a critical cog in the Irish economy, representing over €4bn in spend, and accounting for one fifth of all private sector employment. It has also become far more interconnected with other sectors than before, creating a complex ecosystem involving industries including Technology, Agrifood and the Sharing Economy. In this episode of Ibec Voices, Siobhan Masterson of Ibec puts forward the case for an entire rebrand of the Irish hospitality sector, to acknowledge its recent transformation and repositioning within the overall economy.
