What Clients Are Saying

"Every time I hire Kris for either a talk or facilitating a meeting, we come away with more than we expected and it's always better than expected." - Kurt Schusterman Owner & CEO California Closets of Tennessee
"Kris did a fabulous job for our annual Leadership Summit. Our audience of over 200 students and business leaders gave wonderful feedback about his immediate impact on their leadership journey." - Deirdre Dixon, PHD Associate Director, Center for Leadership University of Tampa
I create healthy organizational cultures that get results.

Many organizations are full of smart, talented people who second-guess themselves, avoid hard conversations, hesitate to take ownership, or compensate with overconfidence. Over time, that shows up as weaker communication, lower trust, stalled growth, and leadership teams that never quite perform at their full potential. I help leaders and teams break that pattern.

Keynote Speaking

I am a professional keynote speaker for large conferences, universities, associations, and company all-hands meetings around the globe.

Workshops and Facilitation

I lead in-depth workshop sessions for executive teams and other groups, including facilitating entire multi-day leadership retreats.

Executive / Leadership Coaching

I provide one-on-one and group coaching for business owners, executives, and rising leaders who want to deepen their leadership skills.

Culture Consulting

I work with owners and business leaders to intentionally shape the culture of their organizations to be healthy and productive.

Hi, I'm Kris Kelso.  I'm a keynote speaker, executive coach, entrepreneur, and author of Overcoming the Impostor.

‍After founding and leading multiple companies, I now work with organizations, leadership teams, and event audiences to help leaders overcome self-doubt, communicate more effectively, build trust, and lead with greater courage.

My work has been featured in outlets including Fast Company Magazine and Yahoo Finance.  I hold a Professional Certified Coach credential from the International Coaching Federation and serve on the faculty of graduate-level coaching and speaking programs.

‍I've coached, taught, and spoken in corporate, conference, and university settings across the country.
