Personal Details

Bio

Julia A. Nicholson is a former CEO, executive leadership expert, business consultant, and adjunct professor of business who has excelled for decades as an industry-leading visionary on governance, strategic planning, team building, and executive performance. But she has also faced an inordinate amount of adversity in her life. In the span of 15 years, she went from a near-fatal head-on collision and a challenging role as single mother of two young children after leaving an abusive marriage, to being the CEO of a $450 million company. She now brings her expertise and passion to organizations and conferences across the country. The transformations that led to her successes are central to her upcoming book Move Forward Stronger. Julia has been featured in Forbes.com and her TEDx Talk “The Way We Think About Loss and Grief is Dead Wrong” was featured on the TEDx Talks YouTube Channel with 36 million subscribers.

What do you do when you experience unwanted change?

The answer defines you, your organization, and its culture. Every day, we hear that resilience is about getting back up after being knocked down. But all those uplifting messages are missing one essential piece — the how of it all.

Julia Nicholson goes beyond teaching the importance of resilience to identifying the framework that builds resilience. From her 5-Facet Diamond Framework to the 3 keys to building resilience, Julia shares real-life, inspiring experiences with a proven process that will leave audiences both motivated and empowered to process any unexpected future or past unwanted change or loss, no matter how long ago it happened.
