COLLEEN SLAUGHTER | FOUNDER
As a speaker, Colleen Slaughter engages the audience with her natural talents for motivating people and planting the desire for positive change within themselves. Her vast experience in business and industry allows her to speak authoritatively on leadership, organization development, change management, and a variety of related topics.
Colleen is dedicated to steering emerging leaders to attain the clarity, structure and self-confidence needed to realize higher levels of success and fulfillment in their personal and professional lives. She is a proven coach with a remarkable ability to guide clients in overcoming self-doubts and dissatisfactions in their lives and businesses.
Many assume Colleen was raised in a well-to-do family and groomed for an international life. Instead, she grew up in a single-parent, low income household in Kentucky. Her path to becoming a leader for women became clear at an early age. Nicknamed “Miss Independent”, she always knew she wanted to be “the boss”.
She moved to Paris at the age of 21 – hardly speaking the language -and with no money in her pocket. She stayed for 13 years and built a successful life. Formerly a secretary, she was accepted to a globally top-ranked bilingual MBA program. She continued taking bold actions – landing two global consulting positions. Others took notice – and Colleen eventually found herself in a rewarding new role – mentoring women.
Guests share how Colleen’s presentation had a positive impact: Colleen’s dynamic experience makes her stand out among the rest.
Her international focus allows her to serve the widely developing market of emerging International leaders who are making their way around the world. Her proprietary BOLDER system is designed to offer the structure, clarity and self-confidence necessary to achieve alignment with true talents and desires.
