Kerri Burchill, PhD helps leaders in messy, dynamic situations. With her international work and academic studies, Kerri has mastered strategies to help helping leaders slow down to go fast. She is a leadership and development trainer, provides individual and team coaching and is on the keynote circuit.
Her journey began over 20 years ago when her and her partner felt that their life was a bit too comfortable, so they positioned themselves to stretch. Despite being short-tracked in her career, they made decisions giving Kerri opportunity to work in three countries, multiple industries that provided rich insights into developing leaders.
Kerri has peer-reviewed publications and recently launched her book, Leading out of the ASKhole® Trap. She has her ICF-MCC credential with over 2,500 hours of paid coaching, and 15 years of post-secondary education. Top that off with 30 years in leadership roles.
