Kathi is a writer, speaker, and executive coach helping improve communication through non-traditional means. She shares her skills and experience with others so they can be better leaders, spouses, writers, recruiters, entrepreneurs... she believes communication is the key to succeeding in career, in marriage, in LIFE!

Kathi is uniquely qualified for this role because of her experience as a executive wife and her abiity to recognize the value of her perspective. Kathi encourages executive spouses to assume a non-traditional role in their mates’ careers. She suggests that it’s okay to reject the old thought that two married people should have separate careers, and instead form a partnership where the couple works together and communicates better to achieve greatness! She refers to this role as the wingspouse(TM) concept.

Kathi also works with businesses to encourage wingspouse partnerships and to communicate business needs to these couples. Wingspouses are a valuable resource when invited to help in recruitment, retention, and other areas where they are willing to participate. Communicating that a company values family is part of this equation.

Kathi also provides training in social media. She believes this form of communication should not be ignored by companies. She suggests that training employees in how to use social media responsibly can prevent embarrassment and encourage healthy company image.
