Meet

Kris McGuigan

Kris is no stranger to courageous disruption. Early in her career, a supervisor coined the term “professional courage” to describe her direct and fearless approach to problem-solving. As a trailblazing entrepreneur, award-winning speaker, and author, Kris has consistently embraced new challenges with breathtaking audacity.

At the same time, she has fought to live authentically, combining her expertise with a fierce passion for igniting “ah-ha” moments of clarity and courage in others. In 2015, she left a successful corporate career to found Professional Courage, a premier career firm designed to help employees advance in their organizations.

But even as Kris helped thousands of individuals identify an intentional career path, she noticed many of them were still struggling to step forward. They knew their professional and even personal lives were stagnating, but they didn't know how to intentionally break free.

They either rushed into actions not aligned with their values or couldn’t find the courage to take any action at all. They lacked the tools for making decisions with authenticity and audacity.

So she set out on a mission to help professionals move towards their goals with purpose and confidence.

As a keynote speaker, author, and coach, she helps executives, entrepreneurs, and professionals activate the courage they need to uncover their values and unleash their full potential.
