An intrepid Australian, Margie Warrell is a bestselling author, master certified coach, media personality and dynamic speaker who empowers people globally to live more courageous lives.
The bestselling author of Find Your Courage (McGraw-Hill), Warrell has learned a lot about courage since her childhood growing up as one of seven children on a farm in rural Australia, to becoming an emerging leader in the human potential movement.
Along the way she has travelled to over 60 countries, venturing to places most people only read about – from the Sahara Desert to the remote highlands of Papua New Guinea; from refugee camps of the Palestinian West Bank to the primitive tribes of the Amazon rainforest.
A certified master coach and Practitioner of Neuro-Linguistic Programming with a background in Fortune 500 Business and Psychology, Warrell has built an international career on empowering individuals – and the organizations they work for – with the strategies they need to expand their vision, engage in bigger conversations and lead more courageously. Her client organizations include Best Buy, United Healthcare, British Telecom, ExxonMobil, NASA, Ernst & Young, Accenture, and AOL. She is also a guest lecturer to MBA students at Georgetown University.
With her down to earth Australian humor and working mother-of-four efficiency, Warrell gets to the heart of what holds people back in their business, careers, relationships, leadership and life. Warm and direct, Warrell has become a regular media guest on national television with appearances on The TODAY Show, FOX News, CNBC, and is the “Resident Coach” on Washington D.C.’s daily talk show Let’s Talk Live, and is a regular contributor to Forbes Magazine.
During the past decade, Warrell has witnessed what she considers a growing trend of “fear becoming the new normal” for many people. This has only served to fuel her passion in helping people become aware of areas where they are settling for less than they truly want, engage in bigger conversations, and expanding what they see as possible for themselves and the organizations for whome they work.
