ABOUT ROSALIND
It’s about making an impact and strengthening connection.
Rosalind has never felt like she had a job. Instead, she has been on a quest; to help people put words to experiences they struggle to articulate and bring dignity back into our families, schools, work and communities. As a global thought leader, she speaks on leadership, conflict, communication, and youth culture at the highest levels of government, corporations, and educational institutions. While she tackles serious subjects, her warmth and wit remind us to approach even the most challenging topics with humility, grace, purpose and sometimes even irreverence.
Rosalind is the best-selling author of nine books, including the New York Times bestsellers Queen Bees and Wannabes—the inspiration for the Mean Girls movie and musical franchise—and Masterminds & Wingmen, named Best Parenting Book by Books for a Better Life.
Currently, she serves as a senior leadership consultant at the US State Department’s Office for Overseas Schools which serves over 195 schools throughout the world and a consultant at the Texas Science Behavior and Mind Institute. She contributed to David Yeager’s recently published book 10 to 25: A Groundbreaking Approach to Leading the Next Generation And Making Your Own Life Easier.
She has been interviewed, profiled in, or written for The New York Times, The London Times, The Atlantic, The Chicago Tribune, The Washington Post, USA Today, NPR affiliates throughout the country and many others. Audiences she has presented to include South by Southwest, Microsoft, UBS, Google, The Royal Society for the Arts, the Association for the Advancement of International Education, the United States Justice Department, the Library of Congress, the United States Department of State, the Game Developers Conference, the American Association of School Administrators, and at the White House many times across administrations.
Rosalind is a board member of the Johnson Depression Center at Anschutz Medical Center. She is a native of Washington, D.C., a daughter, sister, wife, mother of two young men, and lives in Boulder, Colorado.
“Each person’s truth is of equal value. No one gets to speak for anyone else or dismiss an opinion because it’s not shared by the people who have the most power.”
