Bonnie St. John combines Olympic medal-winning resilience with practical business expertise to help organizations thrive amid change. As a one-legged athlete, she defied expectations to become the first African American to win medals in Paralympic ski racing.
A Rhodes Scholar, bestselling author of seven books including "Micro-Resilience," and former White House economic official, Bonnie brings credibility recognized by NBC Nightly News, which named her among America's five most inspiring women. Her insights have been featured in The New York Times, Today, and CNN.
Bonnie helps organizations navigate volatility by teaching "high-performance resilience" - practical techniques that transform how teams respond to challenges. Her approach focuses on minor shifts that create major improvements in focus, energy and productivity, enabling companies to maintain momentum despite disruption.
Audiences leave Bonnie's presentations with actionable micro-resilience tools they can implement immediately, renewed confidence to push beyond comfort zones, and strategies to achieve success through incremental improvements rather than dramatic overhauls.
Book Bonnie when your organization needs both inspiration and practical strategies to transform challenges into competitive advantages.
