A few years ago, Nan Russell left the corporate world to pursue a life-dream to work and write from the mountains of northwestern Montana. Today she is the author of four business and career books, a professional speaker, and workplace consultant. She has shared her workplace insights and practical wisdom with a wide variety of people, from coal miners and Navy engineers to college students and senior leaders at nonprofits and Fortune 100 corporations, igniting passions, crystallizing thinking, and changing results.
Her fourth book, "Trust Inc.: How to Create a Business Culture That Will Ignite Passion, Engagement, and Innovation" (Career Press) was released November 2013. Her third book, "The Titleless Leader: How to Get Things Done When You’re Not in Charge" (Career Press) came out in May 2012. Her second book, "Hitting Your Stride," won a 2009 Axiom Business Book Award, and her first book, "Nibble Your Way to Success: 56 Winning Tips for Taking Charge of Your Career" debuted in 2007. Her work insights column, “Winning at Working,” appears in over 90 publications. Nan is also a blogger for Psychology Today on the topic of Trust: The New Workplace Currency.
In 2006, Nan became President of MountainWorks Communications LLC, a company she founded to support her passion for helping organizations build winning work cultures, and helping people bring the best of who they are to the world, realize their dreams, and live their life’s potential. Prior to her move to Montana, Nan spent over 20 years in leadership positions in human resources, communication, marketing and line management. She was the architect and influence leader of a culture transformation for 10,000 employees. Her career took her from minimum wage employee to Vice President of multibillion dollar QVC.
In roles transforming a corporate culture to heading a new subsidiary, the launch of which was reported in both the Wall Street Journal and USA Today, Nan offers real-world experience with a motivational and business context. She has a B.A. from Stanford University and M.A. from the University of Michigan.
