Amy Posey

Amy Posey has spent the last 20 years speaking about human performance at work. She is an author, facilitator, and business leader who uses her understanding of applied neuroscience to uncover better ways of working. Based in Silicon Valley, Posey has facilitated and worked with Fortune 500 companies around the globe.

Posey spent the first decade of her career in Management Consulting, working with companies like Apple, Adobe, and Applied Materials to work through the complexities of change. Through this experience, she realized that the human side of work is challenging for most of us. Understanding our behavior and how other people collaborate, communicate, and work effectively became her core motivation. As she worked with more clients, she gathered insights on what makes a great leader and a great team, both of which drive business results.

From there, Posey moved on to work for a leadership consulting group that combined her love of adventure with the skills and capabilities needed to be a great leader. She eventually became CEO and ran the business, building first-hand leadership skills. Realizing neuroscience can help us understand our behaviors better, Posey integrated research and practical application into leadership programs she developed.

Sharing information about the brain became a game changer for Posey’s clients, providing them with practical and useful ways to understand how to work more effectively with others. Her passion for translating the science into "real talk" gave people real ways to be more innovative, work through change, and tell better stories.

Posey decided her next chapter needed to focus on training people to understand and use their brains better at work. In 2019, she founded SUPERMEGABOSS to develop soft skills using neuroscience for the emerging leader. Her focus on the core skills that people need when they first manage others is an area where a new mindset and a little weirdness can produce leaders that are ready to manage in our new world of work.

The opportunities to inspire people to think differently about their brains and work have taken Posey around the globe with companies across the Fortune 500. From senior executives to managers to individual contributors, she has shared insights that support people in their leadership journeys in an energetic, exciting, and impactful way.
