Nice to virtually meet you! Here's what you need to know about me.

Kim Choate

I have repeatedly observed that people can achieve personal greatness, if given the right kind of support and encouragement.  My true passion has always been to help people achieve goals they may not have thought possible on their own.  As a Career Ownership Coach, I empower people that are considering alternate lifestyles or whom may be in career transition to look at the career options, including ownership, that are the right fit for their lifestyle goals.  I work with them to discover how to use their current skills, education and experience to make an impact on their lives and gain them the financial freedom that they may be seeking.  This is all done in a safe, judgement free environment where a level of trust is achieved.

I am a 20 year internationally seasoned Incubation, Product Management, and Marketing Executive with a proven record of delivering profit and revenue growth through technical, strategic, and commercial avenues.  I have Long-term global market experience based in both the Asia Pacific and Americas regions significantly growing or doubling multiple businesses ranging from start-up size to the hundreds of millions.  My proven ability to grow new or challenging product lines profitably through new technology creation or commercial pathways enabled me the opportunities to learn about the key challenges of small businesses and startups while leading teams to achieve success others though impossible or could not even imagine.  This passion for helping others and supporting prior team members who decided to start up their own businesses led me to join the wonderful team at The Entrepreneur’s Source.

After taking time off to fulfill a lifelong dream of building a homestead in Hawaii, I was looking for a way to give back and help others whom are now working to achieve their lifestyle dreams.  After considering many options, I found that The Entrepreneur’s Source was the right choice providing the coaching, tools, and support system to help people at all stages of their life.

I am originally from Mississippi and have lived in Japan, Indiana, Massachusetts, New York, and Hawaii.  I spend my time between Mississippi and Hawaii where I work to help others across the country achieve their business ownership dreams.  I am an active venture investor and also contribute to help private start-ups I am invested in achieve success.

Work history.

My Career has given me experience from many different angles.  Here are a few of the highlights

  • As a Ph.D. Scientist developing products that have resulted in Billions of dollars in global sales.
  • Creating and building high-margin businesses from scratch and developing future leaders to run them long after my tenure.
  • Successfully developing processes and tools for incubation startups to run successfully in large corporations.
  • Multiple turnarounds of product lines from their lowest points in history to their most successful … the tools used to build these high performing teams help me coach clients still today.
  • The past two years have been spent with The Entrepreneur’s Source.  Here I have found joy and satisfaction I did not think was possible.  I love helping my clients figure out their “Why” and provide education to explore new career paths that put them in control of their destiny.

Coaching highlights.

I am fortunate to get tremendous satisfaction daily being a Career Ownership Coach with The Entrepreneur’s Source. Having helped 100s of clients so far, I can confess that happily celebrating successes with clients down multiple career paths just never gets old.  Hearing people find that 100% clarity on making the right life decision for themselves & their families is a truly rewarding experience as a coach.

In addition to my time with The Entrepreneurs Source, I am proud of the following:

  • Two decades of identifying, developing, and mentoring business leaders that now run businesses or have senior leadership positions in companies on multiple continents.
  • Mentoring startup leaders on the right way to build and grow their businesses, plus developing processes to do so.
  • Having served on the boards of various NPOs and positively impact lives through the communities I have lived.

 

“I started with just me and one truck, working out of my garage. I now have four employees, and I am in a commercial space. The earnings potential is pretty well limitless at this point. I am busy. I do have to spend time away from my family just as I did before. But now, if I want to stay home and cook my kids breakfast, I can. On nice sunny days, if I want to cut out early to take the kids swimming, I do. I don’t just have weekends to choose from anymore.”
