Gerry O’Rourke

Catch Gerry on DO Radio's "Where To Next" with Mike Warwick, Monday 26 February to Sunday 01 February

With decades of experience running international businesses for Dow Jones, Discovery Channel and others, he has led and coached teams from around the world. Gerry O’Rourke is the founder of Go Management Consulting.

But more than a consultant, he’s a thinker, a connector, and a listener. His work has spanned everything from healthcare innovation to neighbourhood democracy, always with one eye on the future and the other on the humans at the heart of it all.

What makes Gerry’s perspective so compelling is not just what he’s done, but how he does it: slowly, thoughtfully, with deep attention to the unseen forces that shape our systems and our stories.

He helps people ask better questions, reimagine what’s possible, and gently shift the centre of gravity in the places they live and work.

DO Radio Show Notes: 26 January to 01 February

In this week’s episode of "Where To Next" Mike Warwick meets Gerry O’Rouke in his home in the stunning Peak District - the kind of place that invites you to think differently, and that’s exactly what Gerry has spent a lifetime doing.

In this conversation, Mike and Gerry explore the deeper threads of a life well lived: how you can find the core of oneself in something as simple as swimming, the power of slowing down, the hidden intelligence of mycelium, and the simple beauty of being truly helpful.
