Deborah Perry Piscione | Best-Selling Innovation Author and Entrepreneur

Deborah Perry Piscione is an authority on how leaders are changing the mindsets of their companies – and driving unprecedented innovation and growth as a result. As an authority on changing mindsets, we know we need to change mindsets within our organization… but HOW? Her intriguing work stems from the stark differences between old-school power and new school leadership. Having worked as an insider at the White House and Capitol Hill, and then moving into the center of Silicon Valley – Deborah was struck by the vast differences in mindsets between the two coasts. She became fascinated by the collaborative cultures of innovation that dominate the Silicon Valley region – especially the voracious appetite for growing value from ideas. Provocative and wonderfully entertaining, Deborah’s presentations are a prerequisite for leaders looking to shake the status quo.
