    Martha E. McSally:  Keynote Speaker on Leadership, Resilience & High Performance | First American Woman to Fly a U.S. Air Force Fighter Jet in Combat | Retired Colonel | Former U.S. Senator

    Be Unbreakable. Lead Yourself First. How do you lead with courage, clarity and confidence when the pressure keeps rising?

    During her 26-year Air Force career, Martha became the first American woman to fly a U.S. Air Force fighter jet in combat and the first woman to command a fighter squadron in combat. She flew 325 combat hours and earned the Bronze Star and six Air Medals.

    Today, Martha translates those extraordinary experiences into practical strategies that help leaders become more resilient, make better decisions under pressure and move forward when circumstances are uncertain.

    Why Book Martha McSally?

    Martha doesn't teach leadership from theory. She learned it when hesitation, poor communication and bad decisions had real consequences.

    Her experiences span the cockpit, military command, Congress, the U.S. Senate and corporate boardrooms—giving her a distinctive perspective on what happens to leaders and teams when the pressure rises.

    At the heart of her message is a simple idea: lead yourself first.

    Through her WEDGE Framework, Martha gives audiences a practical process for understanding how they respond under pressure, removing what holds them back, gaining clarity about where they're going and taking decisive action.

    Ideal for: Executive leadership teams, C-suite audiences, leadership conferences and organizations navigating change or growth.

    Be Unbreakable: The High-Trust Team Advantage. Talent alone doesn't create high-performing teams. Trust does.

    Drawing on her experiences flying combat missions and commanding a fighter squadron, Martha demonstrates why communication, alignment, accountability and trust become even more important when the pressure is high.

    She shows leaders how to identify friction, break through silos and create teams capable of moving quickly and confidently toward a shared mission.

    Ideal for: Leadership offsites, cross-functional teams, culture initiatives and organizations navigating growth or transition.

    Be Unbreakable: The Courage to Rise and Get Stronger From Life's Hits. Resilience isn't about avoiding adversity. It's about what you do next.
