Kim Tolmie
Kim Tolmie solves what Harvard Business School identified as the leadership development crisis: 75% of organizations rate their programs as ineffective because they focus on soft skills instead of business results. As Director of Faculty at Lone Rock Leadership, Kim leverages her experience designing award-winning leadership programs that improved senior leader effectiveness by 20 percentage points at The Coca-Cola Company. Coca-Cola's CEO made her programs mandatory—not because they felt good, but because they worked. Her innovative approach achieved what most training cannot: a 4.5 out of 5 ROI rating with 90% of participants finding sessions effective.
Kim’s comprehensive understanding of what actually changes leader behavior spans telecommunications, manufacturing, healthcare, transportation, and consumer goods industries. At The Coca-Cola Company, she utilized practical, immediately applicable experiences that leaders could implement to drive real results. Her digital coaching programs for 1,000+ senior leaders achieved a Net Promoter Score of 50 by focusing on outcomes rather than abstract leadership theories. Her application of MindGym's facilitation techniques and partnerships with Harvard Business Publishing, Duke CE, DDI and BTS ensured cutting-edge delivery.
As Director of Faculty, Kim oversees the growth and development of our facilitation team to address expanding needs. And, she consults with clients to apply Lone Rock Leadership principles to improve business performance.
Kim completed graduate studies at Boston University and dual degrees from UNC Chapel Hill. She resides in Atlanta with her family.
