Recognized for her expertise in Emotional Intelligence, Kuhlen focuses primarily on how we use Emotional Intelligence as a superpower when it comes to professional development, communication, and resiliency. She has learned that weaving emotional intelligence into her keynotes and training is essential for behavior change to take place. Her years of experience has taught her that without addressing the emotional aspects, people will revert back to their habits and comfort zones. This insight has been pivotal in her approach to leadership development and speaking/training methodologies.
