Anne Morriss

Anne Morriss is a leadership coach, entrepreneur, and systems thinker who has spent more than 20 years helping individuals and organisations unlock their potential.

Morriss is the founder of The Leadership Consortium (TLC), a first-of-its-kind accelerator that prepares high-potential leaders from all backgrounds for senior executive roles. Under her guidance, TLC has become a force for inclusive leadership development, democratising access to top-tier coaching and training once reserved for a select few.

At the core of Anne Morriss’ work is a deep belief in the power of people to lead meaningful change. Her approach challenges the outdated assumption that speed must come at the expense of trust or excellence. Whether working with startup founders, Fortune 500 executives, or public-sector leaders, Morriss helps individuals and teams move fast and fix things.

Anne Morriss previously served as CEO of GenePeeks, a pioneering genomics company that developed breakthrough ways to identify genetic disease risk. She sits on the board of IGNITE, a non-profit championing political leadership among young women, and advises mission-driven organisations committed to equity, inclusion, and transformation. Her impact has been recognised by Thinkers50, which celebrates global thought leaders reshaping the way we work and lead.

Morriss is the co-author of three widely acclaimed books. Uncommon Service, which redefines how organisations can compete by putting customers at the center; Unleashed, a guide to building trust and empowering those around you; and Move Fast & Fix Things, a bold challenge to the status quo of change management, co-written with longtime collaborator Frances Frei. Together, they also co-host the TED podcast Fixable, where they tackle real workplace problems in under 30 minutes.

Anne Morriss is a leader who believes that with the right tools and mindset, anyone can build better companies, better systems, and a better future.
