Irene Salter, PhD
Irene Salter’s career has taken her from premier neuroscience labs to the middle school classroom, from a school superintendent’s desk to the nonprofit boardroom, from ropes course leader to Exploratorium exhibit designer, from published author to university chairwoman. Today, she uses science to help leaders thrive, not just survive as a leadership coach and trainer. Her clients include industry leaders from both the public and private sector: Disney, Verizon, Facebook, Google, Boston Medical Center, the Department of Health, the University of Texas, and many schools and nonprofits. Her latest writing project explores the hard-core science behind why we love to travel and teaches us to thrive without ever needing to leave home.
