Hire the Best Negotiation Specialists in Atlanta, GA

𝗛𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗼! I'm Kim, a serial entrepreneur turned Business & Strategy Consultant with 10+ years of experience helping startups, small businesses, and Fortune 100s like Disney and Boeing thrive. The knowledge & expertise I've gained from experience is fortified by Lean Six Sigma certifications, a Psychological Science degree, and an MBA from USC Marshall (a top-20 business school). 𝗕𝗔𝗖𝗞𝗚𝗥𝗢𝗨𝗡𝗗: My mother was an entrepreneur, so like a fish in water, I've been surrounded by business my entire life. She founded a snack food manufacturer when I was 5, and it grew alongside me like a sibling. After her unexpected passing, I became the company's CEO and joined forces with my human siblings to run it. That remains the most stressful and scariest year of my professional and personal life, but the lessons afforded to me during childhood and the support of an awe-inspiring team empowered me to succeed its trials by fire. In my first year as CEO, revenue increased by 20% and profitability increased by 36%. We doubled within a few years and steadily grew until receiving a buy-out offer that, after some negotiation, we couldn't refuse. I attribute those experiences to the consultant I've become and my ability to connect with clients. I'm intimately familiar with how overwhelming running a business can be, and I'm passionate about leveraging the knowledge and expertise I've accumulated to empower entrepreneurs in similar ways.
