Jill Schulman applies the science of human performance to one of the hardest problems people face, at any level: how to keep moving forward when the path isn’t clear. A graduate of the University of Pennsylvania’s Master’s program in Applied Positive Psychology and bestselling author of The Bravery Effect, Jill has spent more than 25 years studying and teaching what separates people who move forward under pressure from those who stall.

Her research is grounded in a simple idea: uncertainty isn’t going away, but hesitation is optional, and decisive action is a skill that can be trained. Jill’s evidence-based framework gives individuals and teams a system for making bold decisions and following through, even under pressure.

A U.S. Marine Corps veteran, Jill has delivered keynotes and leadership programs for organizations such as AbbVie, Genentech, and Allergan. Her research-driven insights have been featured in Forbes, SUCCESS Magazine, Fast Company, Psychology Today, Good Day New York, and The Jon Gordon Podcast, and other outlets.

Jill works with leaders and the people who work alongside them, anyone navigating high-stakes decisions or simply trying to stay grounded under pressure, helping them lead clearly and confidently no matter how fast the ground shifts beneath them.
