kaliday consulting

I almost left the business world to become a yoga teacher when a friend mentioned that the corporate world needs our open, loving hearts too. That was 15 years ago. Since then I have been passionate about helping people know their strengths, grow, and create joyfulness in their work-whether it’s a corporate job, teaching school, running a business, or just getting stuff done outside organizational walls. In 2006, after decades as a high-tech product manager, I became a consultant and have the pleasure of working with dozens of smart, insightful business people, most of whom want to work in, and create, meaningful work environments. I have had the honor of helping them create and implement strategic marketing while also subtly encouraging them to also be open hearted in their work (which was not difficult as I am blessed with amazing clients). Then in 2008 I read Firms of Endearment, and happy tears immediately started to flow. Learning that there was a plethora of data to support my beliefs, I knew I needed to work more directly to help people create fulfilling work. Since then I have been continuing my education with conferences and extensive reading and conversation, creating frameworks to incorporate mindful business practices, running a Conscious Business Roundtable, blogging, and writing a weekly newsletter-anything I could to sneak Joyful Work practices into the peoples’ consciousness.
