Biography


With an incredible story and applicable strategies, Courtney helps organizations adapt faster and achieve more by focusing on adaptability, not just positivity. She provides research-backed inspiration that helps individuals adapt faster, achieve more, and develop Accelerated Resilience ™.

Courtney is a 4-time 9/11-related-cancer survivor. But cancer would actually later save Courtney’s life. Organizations hire Courtney to speak at their conferences and events because of her unique blend of what she calls “content-based motivation.” Her presentations balance left brain strategies with right brain storytelling, so every single member of the audience walks away feeling primed for success, no matter their personality or learning style. Everyone in the room will be moved by the blend of humor, stories, research, and interaction Courtney brings to a keynote.

Courtney has done the research and she’s lived it: she knows that resilience in the face of major stress is possible, and I know how to get it done (without any fake, rah-rah toxic positivity in the message!) Audience members who hear her presentations say her strategies make it easier to manage manage change, stress, and challenge head-on. She is sought-after for her unique take on action-oriented resilience strategies.

Courtney’s resilience work has been featured in Forbes, Psychology Today, USA Today, and The Chicago Tribune. Her 3 books on resilience have been called “practical,” “powerful,” and “empowering” by industry leaders.

ReVisionary Thinking™ : The Science and Strategy of Adapting to Change

Can you reach your goals, even if things aren’t going the way you expect? Most people (and organizations) are good at setting goals and making plans, but not very good at revising those plans when things change. But that’s the real work of resilience. Backed by Courtney’s data-driven research, ReVisionary Thinking offers concrete strategies for building “future readiness” and blazing a new path when the goalposts move on you.

Resilience 3.0™ : Why Giving Up is Better Than Grit

Resilience is great... but is it enough? Current resilience lessons are often limited to the cliches of positivity, perseverance, and never (ever!) giving up. But exciting new research reveals that giving up (strategically) might be exactly what it takes to be successful. If your team needs realistic resilience strategies, Courtney’s principles of Productive Persistence™ will prevent burnout and foster flexibility. She’ll share practical techniques for determining when to persevere on a goal vs. when to pivot, so you can spend less time on dead ends and more time making progress.

Detour : Winning When Life Doesn’t Go According to Plan

Hard work usually pays off. But sometimes, no matter how hard you work, your plans just… DON’T work. Resilience researcher Courtney Clark helps teams adapt to change and crisis when the stakes are high, and she has proven techniques to help you deal with life’s detours with humor, resilience, and tenacity. In this inspiring and interactive presentation, you’ll learn a multi-step framework for creating optimal outcomes in uncontrollable situations.

Building resilience means developing new behavior patterns in tough times, and Courtney will show you the research behind the quickest ways to get back on track and be successful, no matter the challenges you face in life and work.

● Featured Reviews

"By far Courtney was the best, most relevant speaker we've ever had. She had us laughing and crying and totally engrossed in her story. Courtney was truly inspirational. If I could, I'd have her back every year."

"I have been an association executive and meeting planner for nearly 20 years and have hired more than a hundred keynote speakers for various conferences. It is very difficult to find a speaker who can connect to all of the various groups represented at a meeting, but Courtney is that speaker. She took the time to get to know our group and many of the attendees have told us that she is the 'very best speaker' we have ever had."

"The healthcare industry is undergoing a lot of transformation and, as such, requires its leaders to embody resilience to meet the challenges and constant change. If you're looking for a great presentation on leaning on your own resilience during times of uncertainty or change that’s presented by an authentic, enthusiastic and inspiring leader, reach out to Courtney. Your expectations will be exceeded."

"Courtney delivers by doing the homework needed to understand who her audience will be. Her pre-work included thorough background consults with our internal team related to our specific volunteer needs. The result, a traditionally 'tough' crowd was completely charmed and enthralled as she delivered her session. Evaluations have been pouring in - all positive!"
