Biography

If you were given the name Amelia Earhart, would you learn to fly? Professional speaker, pilot, author and artist Amelia Rose Earhart was faced with this exact question… and chose to go all in, completing her private, instrument and commercial flight training with the goal of someday flying all the way around the world- just like the incredible American hero she was named after- Amelia Mary Earhart.

In 2014, she completed her goal- circumnavigating the globe along a 28,000 nautical mile route- all in a single-engine aircraft.

This modern-day Amelia Earhart says the most important lesson she learned during her journey is that in order to truly succeed, and also grow along the way, we need to learn to love life’s turbulence- by staying agile amidst the storms that inevitably pop up along each of our paths.

Amelia has fifteen-years of experience as a helicopter and breaking news reporter in Denver and Los Angeles, has sent numerous teenage girls to flight school during her ten-year stretch as president of the Fly With Amelia Foundation, hosts a tech podcast focused on the future of AI in business, and is now turning her aerial photos into original paintings. She has been invited by Apple Computers, Boeing, American Express, Berkshire Hathaway, United Healthcare and dozens of other industry leaders to share her story.

In her recently published book, Learn to Love the Turbulence: “Flight Lessons” on becoming the pilot in command of your own journey, Amelia shares ways to think like a pilot to move through life with agility and confidence.

Take on a Pilot’s Perspective to Navigate Change and Success with Agility Pilots are known for their clear communication skills, decisiveness, situational awareness, information processing, workload management, and overall sense of personal responsibility. These same skills are invaluable in today’s workplace, given the varied tasks and responsibilities each team member is required to perform, often in the work from home environment. In this talk, each member of your team will learn immediate ways to think and act with a pilot in command mentality. Learn: - How conducting “pre-flight” style team briefings can ensure understanding, preparedness and confidence among team members - How to identify and avoid the five most hazardous attitudes to stress responses, and how to counter them with positive action - How the use of checklists can free up working memory while building team trust and synchronicity.

Learn to Love the Turbulence: Create a Flight Plan to Clear Any Goal for Take-Off

Create a Flight Plan to Clear any Goal for Take-Off It would be great if all our goals could be reached without any disruption, but the reality is, reaching new heights requires us to get comfortable with the possibility of turbulence. Preparedness and understanding are the strongest antidotes to turbulence. Drawing upon her upcoming book, Learn to Love the Turbulence: Flight Lessons on Becoming the Pilot in Command of Your Own Journey”, Amelia shares what it takes to create a solid flight plan to reach any goal, identify and assess risk, and formulate backup plans to prepare for disruption, adversity, and challenges. Learn: - How forecasting and proper planning can prepare us to make even the most difficult journeys. - The concept of 360 degree thinking to gain confidence in course correcting through and around major challenges. - The importance of “Aviate, Navigate, Communicate,” which allows us to distribute responsibility and prioritize appropriate action in times of stress and confusion.

Own Your Airspace: How to Be Bold, Resourceful & Agile in Uncharted Territory

How to Be Bold, Resourceful, and Agile in Uncharted Territory In aviation, airspace is the environment where aircraft fly. In the professional world, the “airspace” in which we operate can be thought of similarly. When we own our airspace, we know where we’re going, who we’re sharing airspace with, and we fully understand the rules of the airspace in which we choose to fly. Only then can we begin to fly with confidence, direction, and a sense of mission. In this talk, your team will learn how to see the big picture, strategically avoid potential storms, and identify their own unique headings to not only soar, but truly “own their airspace.” Learn: - The three levels of true situational awareness: Being a passenger, a pilot, or an air traffic controller. - To identify headwinds, tailwinds, and crosswinds in terms of professional challenges and opportunities. - To become comfortable flying “unusual headings” through a divergent creative thinking exercise.

The Sky is the Limit

Your Flight Plan for Success Amelia Rose Earhart knows how to bring a bold dream to life – even when all the odds were stacked against her. In 2014, she followed in the footsteps of the American hero she was named after, Amelia Earhart, and flew a small plane (Pilatus PC-12NG) 28,000 nautical miles around the globe. To accomplish this, Amelia self-funded her instrument and commercial flight training, crafted a strategic business plan to design, fund, and market her around-the-world attempt, grew a large and passionate social following to spread the word, raised close to $2 million in partnerships with 28 corporations, and more. In this motivational speech, Amelia not only inspires, but provides the practical guidance to create your own plan for success. Learn: - How to identify a route toward your goal, identify your personal “fuel sources,” and unlock methods to navigate through and around the storms that may pop up along your path - Why the use of checklists and procedures can free up working memory to allow for maximum focus, creativity, and innovation - Ways to rely upon others in your “flight crew” to delegate tasks and increase confidence in the midst of change and challenge.

Virtual Program: The Holding Pattern

“Sit tight, stay calm, we’ll let you know as soon as we learn more. Once again, we thank you for flying the friendly skies…” We’re all stuck in a personal and professional holding patterns as we navigate through the difficult challenges of the Coronavirus pandemic. Our businesses are basically grounded, our families are forced to attend school from home. It all sounds more like the latest Netflix binge than real life. Unfortunately, this is our current reality and we’ve got to figure out how to fly this plane. As an around the world pilot, Amelia has faced challenges that have grounded her flights, closed borders and rocked her wings so hard she thought they’d snap right off.

As a speaker, she has led Fortune 500 leaders toward their personal goals by discussing the importance of learning to love the turbulence. During this bumpy time, Amelia provides virtual discussions and workshops as webinars and/or pre-produced videos, specifically tailored to help you and your team stay in flight during this holding pattern we are clearly going to be in for quite a while. This discussion between your team will include actionable ways your team can reduce “fuel burn” by prioritizing tasks, create a work from home a routine and checklist to maintain straight and level “flight”, and most importantly, discussing several ways to quiet the mental games our “what if” minds use to distract us away from productivity and success."
