TERRI HANSON MEAD
I'm a tiara-wearing, champagne-drinking troublemaker, author, entrepreneur, speaker, and former Silicon Valley angel investor who has spent decades questioning assumptions, challenging expectations, and looking beyond the obvious.
My work spans two worlds that have shaped much of my life: helping women intentionally design and live lives of their own creation, and challenging how we think about business, innovation, investing, risk, and opportunity.
Through my book Piloting Your Life, Stanford Continuing Studies courses, speaking engagements, advisory work, retreats, and adventures around the world, I bring curiosity, experience, and a willingness to challenge conventional thinking to conversations about how we live, lead, work, invest, innovate, and navigate the world.
