Tracy "JackieO" LaTourrette, Colorado's First Lady Fighter Pilot and one of the first women in the world to fly fighter aircraft, has flown missions globally as a combat mission-ready F-16 Fighter Pilot.
Tracy energizes in-person and virtual teams to Throttle UP and hit their targets by harnessing high paced, rapidly changing fighter pilot methods as a High Performance Speaker, Coach and Consultant.
In her spare time, Tracy hosts the 2024 EMMY Nominated PBS television show, Behind the Wings: Season 5, and coming soon, Season 6. This Fighter Pilot Expert Panelist appears on the Discovery Channel, Science Channel, and Travel Channel.
Tracy graduated along with 88% men from the US Air Force Academy with a coveted appointment from President George H.W. Bush. She entered the Academy less than a decade after the first women commissioned--and graduated before women were even authorized to fly combat aircraft.
Lieutenant Colonel LaTourrette earned a Bachelor of Science in Human Factors Engineering, and over 3,300 combined flying hours as a pilot and AWACS Air Weapons Director. She has been awarded countless medals and ribbons to include multiple Aerial Achievement Medals, Expert Marksman, Combat Readiness, and Top Gun / Turkey Shoot Champion.
Post 9-11 "JackieO" flew direct Presidential protection missions and flew in a classified location for OPERATION IRAQI FREEDOM. Lieutenant Colonel LaTourrette retired after 22 years while serving as the Deputy Director of Operations at the Colorado National Guard's Joint Force Headquarters.
Tracy is a highly sought-after international speaker and executive consultant for Fortune 100 companies, associations and more, has closed for a U.S. President, and has spoken at Harvard Business School. She customizes her speeches to any makeup and size audience, authentically connecting with her attendees on a personal level. Her reviews are second to none.
If you are lucky enough to be accepted into her exclusive High Performance Coaching program, your professional and personal life will hit new heights faster than you ever thought possible. Group coaching for your team arms them with extended value beyond your initial experience with Tracy.
Tracy's attitude of personal accountability, generous leadership and habits of excellence make her a no-nonsense, no-excuses speaker of choice for any group. Tracy loves to interact with her attendees face to face, and always has time for a story, an autograph or a picture. Tracy LaTourrette, callsign "JackieO", is known for breaking barriers, from the sound barrier to beyond.
You and your team can achieve way more than you ever thought possible, once you discover the secret to a "Fight'sON!" Formula that beats fear every time. Identify your "Why" and unlock your team's faith to fly. ThrottleUP™!

Verified @bbbind.comAfter conferring with the protagonist in the story below, I thought I'd send it along: “On the Saturday morning after Tracy’s presentation to our team, my cycling group went out for a 50 mile training ride. We completed 49 miles at a healthy 19.0 mph pace and I happened to be in the lead as we turned to home. Typically we use the last mile to ride with low resistance and high cadence to dissipate some of the lactic acid build up in our legs. As I made the turn, an executive who had attended the session (nickname Turbo), rode up, looked me in the eye and yelled “Fight’s On!” as he sped up. Turbo is 23 years younger than me and very fit. While I rode hard to catch him, he beat me by about a half bike length. As I rolled to a stop with my heart about to explode through my chest, I couldn’t help but smile…Tracy’s presentation had inspired the desired behavior.”

Verified @bbbind.comThis was our first invitation to an outside speaker to address our top executives and Tracy brought her unique energy to a team that was already pretty fired up. She spent some real time learning about our company culture in advance, resulting in a nice connection with the team. Afterwards, I heard a lot of people commenting on "Fight's ON" and the positive relevance to the company as well as their own roles. Thank you, Tracy, for making the trek to Lower Alabama and spending time with our team-you are always welcome back for an encore performance!

Verified @comcast.com"Tracy spoke at a leadership summit we held in March of 2019 and she was amazing! Tracy has an ability to authentically connect with the audience. In her presentation she brought us through a variety of emotions- we laughed, cried, anticipated, felt pride in our own business, and were inspired to achieve more. We chose Tracy over other speakers for her unique ability to reach the audience on a personal level, customizing every portion of the program, and going the extra mile to ensure satisfaction. Tracy has an incredible personal journey-it is interesting, inspirational, and sincere. We truly appreciated her "no excuses", "no special treatment expected" work ethic and habit of excellence. At the conclusion of the event, we sent all participants an NPS survey. Tracy received an NPS score of 94%!"

Verified @hsabank.comHSA Bank invited Tracy LaTourrette to be one of our outside speakers at our annual Sales Growth meeting which was conducted virtually. She was our final speaker after a week long series of meetings, discussions and workshops. She brought a level of excitement and energy to our final session that the team really needed. Being a veteran myself I was excited to hear about her background and story and have her share that with the rest of the team. In advance of our meeting she took the time to understand our culture, strategy and focus of the Growth organization and was able to tie a military theme to her message that related to the overarching theme of our sales/growth culture.....VECTOR! Tracy delivered exactly what we were looking for and she scored the highest evaluation survey of all speakers! She is truly a talented woman and was respected and well received by our organization. Thank you Tracy ("Jackie O") for being a part of our week and for your contributions! Fight's On! :-)

Verified @abwa.orgTracy LaTourrette was our closing keynote at the National Women's Leadership Conference hosted by the American Business Women's Association (ABWA). This was our first virtual national conference in the Association's history. Even in a virtual format, I was confident that Tracy would connect in a relatable way, encouraging our members to fly to new heights and inspiring them to be fearless at a time when everyone was fearful. And she did just that! She was knowledgeable, animated, and most of all, Tracy was memorable. After her presentation, she received a virtual standing ovation. Moreover, conference attendees asked Tracy to return and speak again at ABWA's 2022 national conference event!

Verified @gmail.comTracy was the facilitator for a recent strategy session we completed for my line of business. Tracy...was fantastic. Tracy impressed me with her ability to quickly learn, comprehend, and communicate our business, goals, and opportunities. She executed an elevator pitch for our business flawlessly to the session, with no direct coaching from myself or my team. Her energy, enthusiasm, and experience radiate confidence and drives success. I look forward to working with her again in the future.
