ASNT is proud to welcome Lisa Ryan as the Opening Keynote Speaker at ASNT 2025!
Before speaking on stages across the country, Lisa spent 13 years in industrial sales, including 7 years in the welding industry. She knows firsthand what it’s like to work in high-stakes, hands-on environments, and she brings that real-world experience to the strategies she shares today.
Lisa Ryan’s keynote at ASNT 2025 will deliver proven retention strategies rooted in her own hands-on experience in the welding and industrial space. Lisa believes that as the industry evolves and depopulation accelerates, the challenge isn’t just hiring, it’s creating a culture that makes the next generation want to stay.
Lisa's keynote combines research-backed retention strategies with real-world tools to strengthen workplace culture and leadership across technical and industrial teams.
