WATCH NOW
CEO, Disruption Advisors
Whitney Johnson is a leading authority on organizational change, honored with a 2025 ATD Thought Leader Award and named among the top management thinkers globally by Thinkers50 since 2015.
As CEO of Disruption Advisors, she helps companies like Mondelez, Intermountain Health, Utah Valley University, and Amazon navigate critical transitions, combining analytical rigor with deep emotional intelligence.
A former Wall Street equity analyst, she co-founded the Disruptive Innovation Fund with Clayton Christensen, but discovered she was more interested in the momentum of people than stocks. Her books Disrupt Yourself, Build an A Team, and Wall Street Journal bestseller Smart Growth, along with her Harvard Business Review contributions, have influenced millions. Whitney hosts the Disrupt Yourself podcast and has over 1.6 million LinkedIn followers.
She holds a degree in music and has lived and worked across Latin America. She and her husband have two adult children and live in Lexington, Virginia, where they enjoy watching K-dramas, growing berries, and making homemade jam.
Growth doesn't pause for disruption. Neither should development.
Reorgs, AI adoption, tighter budgets — the habits your leaders need don't wait for calm to arrive. They get built now, or they don't get built at all.
