Meet Dr. Kim Nugent
Inspiring Others to Take Action & Live a Life They Love
My name is Kim Nugent.
As a Marshall Goldsmith Certified Executive Coach, I believe if you want to achieve extraordinary results, you must start with your people. Investing time, training, and mentoring to bring out the best in each individual is the first step in the process. The next step is to build a culture of sustainability built on values. This does take time, but the results are worth it.
I am passionate about learning, leadership development, faculty development, and evidence-based coaching and mentoring that drive individual and organizational success.

Kim demonstrates excellent powers of observation, and an ability to communicate and suggest change in effective but non-threatening ways. She is gifted in organizational management and approaches audiences from a rational and real world perspective. Kim is a wonderfully motivating individual who can change the way you work!”

“We’re a women’s professional association and we kicked off the New Year with Kim as our speaker. It was the most highly attended dinner event we’ve ever hosted. Kim was flexible with our timetable and tailored her talk to our industry. She gave us practical and achievable steps to move towards success and used stories to make concepts easy to understand and remember. I strongly recommended her a speaker for any type of professional development event.”
