A World Economic Forum Young Global Leader and ranked one of the “50 Leading Female Futurists” in the world by Forbes, April Rinne (pronounced Rih-Nee) is a change navigator. She helps individuals and organizations rethink and reshape their relationship with change, uncertainty, and a world in flux. She is a trusted advisor to well-known startups and companies, financial institutions, nonprofits, and think tanks worldwide, including Airbnb, Nike, Intuit, the World Bank, the Inter-American Development Bank, NESTA, Trōv, AnyRoad, and Unsettled, as well as governments ranging from Singapore to South Africa, Canada to Colombia, Italy to India. Her work has been featured in major publications worldwide, including Harvard Business Review, Wired, Fast Company, and CNBC. Rinne is the author of "Flux: 8 Superpowers for Thriving in Constant Change."

A graduate of Harvard Law School and member of the Silicon Guild, Rinne has been weaving a story about how to thrive amid flux for as long as she can remember, drawing on her history as a futurist, advisor, global development executive, microfinance lawyer, investor, mental health advocate, certified yoga teacher, and globetrotter (100+ countries). She also harnesses her very personal experiences with flux, including the death of both of her parents in a car accident when she was 20. Through her travels and tragedy, vision and values, global perspective, and grounded sense of purpose, Rinne helps others better understand how we see, think about, struggle with, and ultimately forge positive relationships with change.

Rinne holds a J.D. from Harvard Law School, an M.A. in International Business and Finance from The Fletcher School at Tufts University, and a B.A. in International Studies and Italian summa cum laude from Emory University. She is a Fulbright Scholar and studied at Oxford University, the Harvard Kennedy School of Government, and the European University Institute. She is one of the 50 leading female futurists in the world, one of the earliest Estonian e-Residents, and — for balance — a certified yoga teacher. In 2011 the World Economic Forum named her a Young Global Leader.
