Mandy Gill
After building and scaling one of the world's most effective behavior change apps, Hooked on Healthy Habits, Mandy Gill has amassed one of the world's largest datasets focused on goal-setting, resilience, and maximizing positive results with over 10,000 clients coached to extraordinary achievements. Drawing on this extensive research and her personal journey of extreme endurance, Mandy is a highly sought-after keynote speaker and bestselling author who helps leaders and their teams not just survive but thrive in the face of uncertainty by equipping them with field-tested strategies to navigate inevitable challenges and transform setbacks into competitive advantages.
Mandy brings unparalleled authenticity to her message through her extraordinary athletic accomplishments, including training for and racing in 100+ kilometer (with 20,000 feet elevation gain!) ultra-marathons all over the world. As a passionate mountaineer, she has climbed some of the highest peaks in Nepal and across the globe. She masterfully draws compelling parallels between the life-or-death decision-making required in extreme mountain environments and the high-stakes challenges leaders face daily in boardrooms, on manufacturing floors, and in virtual team settings. This unique perspective has made her expertise invaluable to diverse organizations, from elite military units like the US Navy to global corporations including adidas, docusign, TD Bank, and Manulife.
Before becoming a renowned resilience expert, Mandy established herself as a respected media personality in the broadcast world, where her career included memorable interviews with global icons like Lady Gaga and Rihanna. This media background, combined with her entrepreneurial success as a tech founder and CEO, gives her a rare ability to connect with audiences across industries and leadership levels.
As a Harvard Leadership Program graduate and two-time Women of Distinction Award nominee, Mandy brings both academic rigor and real-world credibility to her work. She is passionate about creating systemic change by leveling the playing field and opening doors for women across the globe, work that extends far beyond her speaking engagements into active mentorship and advocacy.
Her latest book, "Reset with Resilience: A Guide to Greatness When Your Goals Go Sideways", released in January 2025, has already achieved bestseller status and provides readers with the same data-backed frameworks she shares with Fortune 500 companies. The book synthesizes insights from her massive behavioral dataset, personal extreme experiences, and years of working with high-performing teams to offer a practical roadmap for turning inevitable obstacles into breakthrough opportunities.
Whether addressing C-suite executives navigating digital transformation, frontline managers building resilient teams, or entrepreneurs scaling their ventures, Mandy's message resonates because it's grounded in both empirical evidence and lived experience that few speakers can match.
