Monday Closing Keynote This City is Going on a Diet Monday, November 16, 2015, 3:30-4:45 pm – Northland Ballroom When Oklahoma City appeared on a magazine’s list of the nation’s most obese cities, Mayor Mick Cornett decided to do something about it. He put the entire city on a diet and challenged residents to lose 1 million pounds. Then Oklahoma City decided to rethink urban environment and design a city that promotes healthy, active lifestyles. Mayor Cornett will explain how an outrageous challenge led to a community-wide conversation on health and wellness. He’ll share how that conversation led to a $1 billion investment in quality-of-life infrastructure designed to nudge people toward healthier lifestyles. The audience will learn how the built environment can promote health and wellness.

Mick Cornett Oklahoma City Mayor The son of postal worker and school teacher, Mick Cornett was born and raised in Oklahoma City. From an early age, his parents taught him the value of public service and encouraged him to keep the faith, work hard and dream big. Today, Mayor Mick Cornett, the first four-term mayor in Oklahoma City history, is leading a thriving community that reflects the same principles his parents instilled in him.

He has been honored by various organizations and publications as the top mayor in the state and nation — and an international panel selected Mayor Cornett as the second-best mayor in the world. Newsweek magazine called him one of the “five most innovative mayors in the United States.” Politico placed him on the publication’s Politico 50 list of “thinkers, doers and visionaries transforming American politics in 2015.” Recently elected to a leadership position in the U.S. Conference of Mayors, he is in line to be president of that organization in 2016. Mayor Cornett famously put the entire city on a diet to raise awareness on the national issue of obesity. His leadership helped bring an National Basketball Association franchise team to Oklahoma City. During his time in office, Oklahoma City has invested nearly $2 billion in schools and quality-of-life infrastructure through the innovative Metropolitan Area Projects (MAPS) program. That investment generated nearly $6 billion in private sector investment. Today, Oklahoma City’s economy is one of the nation’s most robust. Cornett’s a popular national speaker on the topics of health and wellness, urban design, placemaking and walkable cities. His TED Talk on those topics has been viewed by more than 1.3 million people worldwide. Mayor Cornett produced, wrote and directed the documentary Oklahoma City: The Boom, The Bust and The Bomb which was released to critical acclaim in 2015. He earned a degree in journalism at the University of Oklahoma and an MBA from New York University. He is married to Terri (Walker) Cornett and has three sons.
