Holly Duckworth Biography

Holly Duckworth, CAE, CMP, LSP, is a keynote speaker, applied mindful leadership advisor, and C-suite consultant specializing in leadership development, workplace wellness, and emotional intelligence. As owner of Leadership Solutions International, Duckworth has spent more than 20 years helping organizations address the impacts of stress. A certified workplace mindfulness facilitator, she leads mindfulness initiatives in the meetings industry and founded the American Mindfulness Association to promote mindfulness as a strategic business practice.

Duckworth began her career in nonprofits and volunteer leadership, educating association staff and volunteers on strategies for professional success. She combines strategic vision, mindful leadership practices, and event management expertise to design experiential events that address organizational challenges. With experience in sales, association leadership, and executive coaching, Duckworth delivers practical tools to help teams reduce stress, improve clarity, and enhance performance while supporting employee wellbeing.

Duckworth contributes to the New York Times, serves as producer and host of the "Everyday Mindfulness Show," and writes columns for industry publications. She collaborates with leaders to foster peace, presence, and profitability in their organizations. The "Everyday Mindfulness Show" features more than 150 episodes, offering training on applied mindful leadership and related science. Her keynote, "The Mindful Economy: How Mindfulness Increases Your Impact & Income," is a central part of her speaking engagements.

Duckworth is the author of four books focused on leadership, sales, and mindfulness. Her book "Mindful Leadership: The Stress-Free Guide to Leadership" is a bestseller, and "Ctrl+Alt+Believe: Reboot Your Association For Success" has received two national awards. She also co-authored "Sell More, Stress Less" and created "Leading Human: A Practical Guide to Thriving in an AI-Driven World," a framework for professionals navigating leadership in the context of artificial intelligence.

Duckworth has been recognized by Meetings Today as a Trend Setter for her work in applied mindfulness and by Smart Meetings as Woman of the Year. She was a finalist in the National Speakers Association's So You Think You Can Speak competition, earning recognition as one of the top five emerging speakers in the United States. Duckworth continues to speak and write at the intersection of leadership, wellbeing, and AI, supporting organizations and women in integrating human insight with emerging technology for effective leadership.
