| A corporate speaker and presenter, Kathy Parry works with professional and financial services organizations that want to energize employees in order to boost performance, increase retention and improve staff utilization. Prior to launching her own business, Kathy was a trainer for a super-regional bank on their merger and acquisition team.

Kathy spent the next several years becoming an expert in cellular function and received her Certification in Plant Based Nutrition from the T.Colin Campbell Program at eCornell University. Her journey with her daughter and subsequent research on resiliency have led Kathy to author her latest book, The Resilient Leader. She previously authored three other books.
