Meet Dr. Amber Kinser

Speaker, Trainer, and Coach 

I am a workplace human interaction expert, helping leaders master the hard skills of human interaction.

 

In my work with clients and organizations, I highlight the central role of interpersonal communication in shaping work relationships, organizational outcomes, and workplace culture.

​

I help leaders master the human side of work by learning to navigate difficult conversations, manage conflict, deal with difficult people,manage impostor syndrome, and improve emotional intelligence. I am certified to administer the EQ-i 2.0 and EQ 360 emotional intelligence assessments, and the ELI and ELI 360 leadership assessments.

​I am an accomplished and motivating speaker and trainer, known for delivering interactive and actionable presentations. I tailor each of my speaking engagements to meet the unique needs of each audience, ensuring a relevant and valuable experience for all participants.

​

I have a Ph.D.in interpersonal communication and I held leadership positions for over 20 years before early retiring and starting my business. I am a Certified Professional Coach, and hold an ACC credential from the International Coaching Federation.  

I  hope to have the opportunity to talk with you about how I might serve you or your organization.
