● SUNNY + ASHLEIGH
Sunny Bonnell and Ashleigh Hansberger are the founders of Motto® and bestselling authors of Rare Breed: A Guide to Success for the Defiant, Dangerous, and Different.
AUDACITY + GUTS
Sunny Bonnell and Ashleigh Hansberger have spent their careers helping leaders make bolder decisions and differentiate in a sea of sameness. Now, they teach leaders how to dismantle business-as-usual with their bestselling book, workshops, and keynotes.
Sunny and Ashleigh met as teens in a Chicago snowball fight. They grew up together, went to college together, and in their early twenties started Motto in 2005 with just $250. From the beginning, they were swimming against a current of doubt. People said we were too young, too female, too inexperienced, and too rebellious to succeed in a world where sixtyish admen made the rules.
Now, the dynamic duo captains an army of talent at Motto and have created a new framework for innovation based on their unconventional business book RARE BREED: A Guide to Success for the Defiant, Dangerous, and Different. Their breakthrough book and thinking have garnered clients like Virgin, Google, Microsoft, and their Fast Company article went viral with over 6 MILLION reads and shares.
Sunny and Ashleigh speak globally, write about business innovation, and give keynotes on brand thinking, leadership mindset, and culture building.
