Kathryn Heath is an executive coach and expert on business, women, and leadership.

“The problem is that there are still so few women at the top. What does it take for an organization to build a pipeline for women? And what can women do to climb higher, faster? My big vision is to have women in 30% of all leadership positions in corporate America in 10 years’ time. The good news is we now know how to achieve this.”

Kathryn speaks from experience: She was Senior Vice President and Director of First University at the nation’[s fourth-largest bank, First Union Corporation (now Wells Fargo), where her inventive and results-focused approach won her numerous awards in the field of learning and development. There, during a period of explosive growth, Kathryn centralized training, expanded the tools and channels both on-site and remotely, and exponentially increased the training hours per person. She also created programs for high-potential employees
