Coaching for

Women in Tech

The statistics bear a grim reality for women in tech – close to half of us will leave the field by the time we reach the mid-point of our careers.  Dynamics like hustle culture, hyper-masculine worker biases, unequal pay, mommy penalties, steep paths to advancement, and unfair treatment lead many women to evaluate whether they’ve made the right choice to pursue a career in tech.

Are you one of them?

If the answer is yes...

Before you throw in the towel, know that there are ways for you to succeed as a woman in tech.  As a former divisional CIO for a Fortune 250 company, I have first-hand experiences of the challenges women face in navigating their tech careers.  Whether you want to grow in your current position, find a different job in the field, or leave IT altogether, by working together you will identify the most intentional and empowering career path that fits with your life and career goals, and develop the strategies to implement it.

“Kim helped me see myself more clearly, which enabled me to work past the obstacles that were holding me back.

I entered the coaching engagement with Kim wanting to gain an ally in navigating my career journey as a woman in tech - someone trustworthy and kind who could see things I was missing and help me course-correct where necessary, as well as gain clarity in defining the path ahead. I’m delighted that working with Kim delivered in all of these areas!  I gained the insight that my experiences were not uncommon, and my responses to the obstacles I faced were legitimate. This renewed my confidence in myself.

Kim is a great guide through this complicated terrain."

– Rachel Bird, Software Engineer

“Feel closure and confidence again, be the powerful woman you are!

As a professional woman in the tech industry since 1994, I know what challenges I had on an international stage.  An overpowering of male dominance, power struggles, competing challenges between work and wanting to be a mother, and the list goes on.  I have worked with Kim who was once in woman in tech, climbing the corporate ladder and understanding the walk every woman in tech takes each and every day.  I recommend all women out there in the tech world engage with Kim should you need leadership or career coaching.  Be it elevating your career, getting to decisions around your future, work-life balance, and so much more... choose Kim as your transformational coach."
