Kathryn Tack is an executive and leadership development coach with The John Maxwell Team who partners with CEO’s, senior executives and leaders to help them realize significantly higher levels of productivity and fulfillment in their leadership and life roles.

Kathryn began her career as a speaker, focusing on women’s conferences and retreats. She then launched a major entrepreneurial effort in 1983 when she purchased, franchised and developed a 12 restaurant and management services company in the hospitality industry. For 15 years Kathryn was President and CEO of Good Times Concepts, a multi-million dollar enterprise. When she sold her company, many of her colleagues asked her to mentor them and that is when she decided to launch her executive coaching business. She is a graduate of Coach University, Executive Coaching Institute and now speaker/teacher and coach with the John Maxwell Team. She has served as Chair for Vistage, an international organization dedicated to increasing the effectiveness and enhancing the lives of CEO’s. She also served as Chair of the Women Presidents’ Organization (WPO) committed to helping women gain financial equity and to access support for their unique roles. In 2009, she launched her most recent entrepreneurial effort of Executive JaneÔ, a personal board of directors for women who convene for the purpose of obtaining wisdom and discernment and then set a course of action for change. As a strong Christian and leader, Kathryn is always looking to serve her sisters-in-Christ and decided to be a part of the leadership team of 4word Chicago as advisor to help solidify efforts within the Chicagoland area.

Kathryn has and continues to coach and speak to leading and emerging Presidents, CEO’s and senior executives of small to medium businesses. Her blend of experience as a CEO, executive coach, wife and mother brings a profound depth of wisdom and practical application to the field. She is married to Jerry, her husband for over 40 years and is the mother of three children and six grandchildren.
