Want to know about me?
K.
Kerchner McConlogue, CPCC, PCC
Kerch (pronounced “kersh”)
short form of my last name before I was married
McConlogue (pronounced mc con' log)
I
work with people who are ready to challenge themselves to do big things:
small business owners and high performers in corporate settings, people
on the move, people who want to see change and results.
I
also work with adults who have attention deficit disorder, people with
endless ideas and plans, people who have too many ideas, who know they
are capable of more and want to prove it.
Business Experience
- I began coaching in 1999. Beginning in 2002, I have been working with organizations in strategic planning, construction of and revisions to bylaws, as well as strength based evaluations.
- From the late 1980s through the late 1990s I produced big events for non profit organizations here in Baltimore. These events ranged in size from the Baltimore City Fair, a three day long celebration of life in the city, to exhibitions for the Fund for Educational Excellence, to fund raising events for the Baltimore Opera Company. I traveled 16 days with the Carson and Barnes Circus on behalf of the Maryland Mental Health Association.
- For four years in the early 1970s, I was a process control analyst for Bethlehem Steel Corporation at Sparrows Point in Baltimore, MD
- From the mid 1970s through the late 1990s I ran a small crafts business, producing framed painted paper cuttings that I sold to gift shops and galleries across the country.
