Dr. Rita Murray
Rita Murray, PhD, provides speaking and coaching events to help others realize the power of words that matter—biblical, cognitive, emotional, and generational words. She has been through the gauntlet/journey of careers in technology, aerospace, higher education, Hollywood, and later building a U.S. wide energy services company with her husband and lifelong business partner, Ron Murray. In her private practice, Rita has been blessed to help hundreds of leaders and teams make conscious changes to their lives and careers through transformative coaching and continues her practices with clients nationwide. Rooted in her Christian faith, Rita knows what truly drives and sustains cultures—and it is not mastering the financials, enhancing marketing or social media channels. She delivers practical leadership programs and tools rich in the “heart and science of human connections” relevant across generations and cultures. A Boston native, first generation American and dual citizen of the U.S. and Ireland and a private pilot, Rita married adventurous Ron in 1998—a U.S. Air Force Academy graduate and high time pilot, decorated Vietnam Veteran, serial entrepreneur, and awe-inspiring chef. They make their church home at First Moore in Moore, Oklahoma. Rita is active in faith-based individual and marriage coaching, multi-generational church ministry, and prison ministry.
