Selena Rezvani Biography

Selena Rezvani is a recognized consultant, speaker and author on women and leadership. A VP of Consulting and Research at Be Leaderly, Selena uses workplace culture assessments to help corporate clients be more inclusive and welcoming to women. She’s also the author of two leadership books targeted at professional women - the award-winning Pushback: How Smart Women Ask—and Stand Up—for What They Want (Jossey-Bass, 2012) and The Next Generation of Women Leaders (Praeger, 2009).

Selena’s mission is to help high-potential women reach the top echelons of leadership, a goal she achieves through by working with senior leaders to position an inclusive workplace as a competitive business advantage. Her experience and success in the women and leadership arena makes Rezvani a frequent resource for news media and an in-demand business speaker. She has been quoted, interviewed and profiled by Oprah.com, The LA Times, The Wall Street Journal, Forbes, ABC, and NBC. She was a regular commentator on NPR’s syndicated The 51% Perspective and wrote an award-winning column on women and leadership for The Washington Post. Outside of her consulting programs, Selena promotes her message through presentations to corporate audiences, at universities and associations, and at many international conferences, including TedX, Harvard, Microsoft, Princeton, J&J, Apple, Northrop Grumman, LinkedIn and many others.

Prior to joining Be Leaderly, Selena served on Deloitte’s Greenhouse Experience team, where she led teams through how to foster better diversity and collective intelligence. Selena also led the assessments practice at Washington, DC-based Management Concepts, where she administered and coached clients on personality, leadership, and aptitude measures. Selena has led numerous workplace culture research campaigns and studies on women in the C- suite, millennials, managers and negotiating habits, which have been covered by international media.

Prior to her 3 years at Management Concepts, Selena worked as a senior member of the consulting team at the Great Place to Work® Institute, the firm best known for ranking Fortune’s 100 Best Places to Work® in America list. While at the Institute, Selena consulted widely on issues of organizational change and workforce development, working with Fortune 1,000 and non-profit organizations internationally and across many industries including Monster.com, Novartis Corporation, DaimlerChrysler, Inova Health System, and Brooks Brothers. Client services included focus group facilitation, employee opinion surveys, 360º assessments, leadership workshops, and customized survey assessments.

She has B.S. and Master of Social Work degrees from New York University, and has an MBA from Johns Hopkins University. Selena lives in Philadelphia with her husband Geoff and 6-year old boy/girl twins.

Speaking Topics
  • Turn Up Your Executive Presence

    Most aspiring leaders know they need executive presence. Yet, presence can be mystifying and hard to define. This “it” quality is shaped not only by how you’re broadly regarded • but how you’re experienced and perceived on a daily basis. Zeroing in on three executive presence “filters,” participants practice being the “confident leader” even when dealing with imperfect conditions and uncertainties. Deviating sharply from the message that women are somehow deficient, this session gives women positive, smart, and strong moves to drive their plans forward.

  • Reimagine Your Brand, Then Advocate It into Reality

    Transforming yourself from a trusted employee into a leader can be a challenge as a woman. It takes an assessment of your brand, the courage to finetune it, and the power and self-advocacy to amplify it. Learn how to identify what you’re most known for today and what key elements are missing from your brand to take the next step. See how to carve out a unique and valuable leadership niche, influence upward, and self-advocate to make that brand a reality.

  • Negotiate Like a Boss

    Gone are the days when self advocating was only for a performance review, job interview or the big pitch. Women negotiate all day every day—for better project deadlines, to resolve a standstill on a team—not to mention in “#MeToo moments” that are highly personal or high-stakes. How can you make the most of these conversations—regardless of whether it’s with a direct report, boss, peer or customer? Leveraging tips from her award-winning book, Pushback, Selena Rezvani teaches you how to flex your style based on the person with whom you are speaking, back your ideas, and manage pushback with authority and power.
