Gary Bradt, PhD Biography
Gary Bradt is an inspirational speaker and author specializing in change and leadership. He is a clinical psychologist and entrepreneur with extensive experience in helping individuals and organizations adapt to change.
When Bradt's first child was born with a chronic and life-threatening heart condition, it compelled him to learn to adapt to difficult and unwanted changes. This personal experience led him to dedicate his career to aiding others in navigating change, both professionally and personally.
Bradt began his career as a leadership speaker on change when Dr. Spencer Johnson selected him to be the leading speaker worldwide for Johnson's highly successful book "Who Moved My Cheese?" Over the next four years, he delivered over one hundred presentations and then extended his focus. For the past two decades, Bradt has committed his efforts to assisting clients not just in whether to change, but how to do so effectively. He emphasizes the importance of adapting quickly and maintaining a positive direction during transitions, using insights from neuroscience and positive psychology.
He is the author of several influential books on handling change, including "The Ring in the Rubble: Dig Through Change and Find Your Next Golden Opportunity" and "Change: The Tools You Need for The Life You Want at Work and Home." His speaking engagements are often characterized by their engaging and practical nature, where he uses storytelling, humor, and solid content to deliver his messages. Each presentation is highly customized to meet the unique objectives of the event, focusing on themes like "Adapt, Ignite, and Win."
Bradt has delivered over 350 presentations to major clients such as IBM, American Express, eBay, FedEx, Coca-Cola, Visa, and NASA, helping them transform change into opportunities. Through his keynotes, he provides actionable advice and tools for leadership and personal growth, making him a sought-after speaker for audiences worldwide.

If you can’t manage yourself, it is very hard to effectively lead others. Selfmanagement means thinking before you speak. It means pausing before you act. It means controlling your emotions and not flying off the handle every time someone pushes one of your hot buttons. All this requires a degree of self-awareness and control that comes naturally to a few but must be learned by most. This keynote gives audiences the practical tools they need to stay positive and proactive no matter the circumstances or pressures they face.
Practical takeaways from this presentation will include:
- How to utilize mindfulness to become a more intentional leader
- How to listen better and deeper
- How going slower can help you go faster
- How to get your mind and emotions working together to achieve better results

Does happiness impact business results? Are happier employees more productive? Are some people more naturally happy than others? How can you create a happier environment for all? These are just some of the questions we will explore in this informative keynote based on the exploding research on positive psychology. We will explore what the research says about happiness at work, and how you can use this knowledge to create a more productive and innovative environment at work, and at home. And, we will explore what happiness means to different people and cultures where you may do business, and how their definition and sources of happiness may vary from yours.
Practical takeaways from this presentation will include:
- How to understand the relationship between happiness and business success
- How paying attention to the soft side of business produces hard results
- How to increase your chances for happiness and the happiness of those around you
- How to be happy in less than happy circumstances
- How and why happiness is not always the answer
Savvy consumers want everything faster, better and cheaper. Competitors spring out of garages seemingly overnight. And restless workers job-hop to find the meaning and flexibility they want. Throw in geographically dispersed teams working across time zones; an alphabet soup of generations with clashing values and priorities; and global geo-political upheaval, well, you have what Oliver Hardy of the classic comedic duo Laurel and Hardy used to call “another fine mess.” Are you supposed to be leading others through the mess but feel like you are drowning in it instead? This keynote throws you a lifeline to help you out. Each ‘knot’ on the line if you will, is a leadership principle gleaned from Gary’s years helping executives manage themselves as they lead others through constant and rapid change.
Practical takeaways from this presentation include:
- How to employ tools and techniques for managing stress
- How to leverage the power of your team to get more things done
- How to focus on what’s most important now
- How to let go of negative thoughts that may weigh you down
- How to keep your head when everyone else is losing theirs
Life doesn’t always go as we wish. Plans get made only to be washed away by the tides of change. How can we adapt? What simple yet powerful tools can we employ? You have to stay resilient to win. In this practical and moving keynote, Gary shares what science says about resilience, and what he has learned from coping with the life-long challenge of a son born with a chronic health condition. We will examine 3 business case studies of resilient and successful change leaders. Audiences will walk away from this presentation moved, inspired and empowered to climb every mountain and jump every hurdle that business and life and may throw their way.
Practical takeaways from this presentation include:
- How to employ tools and techniques that help you adapt to change faster and better
- How to develop your resiliency muscle
- How to bounce back fast from failure
- How practicing gratitude helps you become more resilient and lowers stress
- How to find opportunity in every change you face
