Kimberly led General Electric’s Leadership Learning & Development strategy and solutions at GE Crotonville. For seven years, her intuitional and methodical approach to individual and team development earned her the respect of leaders throughout GE. As a player-coach serving 330,000 employees, her individual work was focused GE’s top 400 leaders - teaching, coaching, provoking, and inspiring change. 

Her workshops and keynotes engage the ‘Whole Human’ often with humor, rarely with PowerPoint. Kimberly believes that the best way to learn about the world is to be out in it. Thus, leaders might find themselves in a Maasai village in Northern Tanzania, doing chores at a horse farm in Wyoming, walking the battlefields of Normandy, getting lost in Manhattan, or training with the Israeli army. She thrives on helping humans simplify their approach to leading in this fast-paced, sometimes chaotic, and always uncertain world. 

Kimberly obtained her BA from the University of Wisconsin Madison and her Masters in Adult Education and Leadership Studies from Loyola University Chicago. She is a hopeful guitarist, themed cake decorator, certified Black Belt (Six Sigma kind), Siberian Husky lover (x3), die-hard Packer fan, and still doesn’t understand why humans under the age of 20 only ‘selfie’ 1⁄2 of their face for Snap. 

Kimberly lives in Delafield, Wisconsin with her husband of 23 years, Bob, and their 3 children: Katie (19), Alyssa (17), and Sam (15).
