Prior to Green’s executive coaching and consulting career, she was an executive leader for the world’s largest human resource association. During that time, she became a fierce advocate for the HR profession and ensured the voice of hundreds of thousands of global HR leaders was heard and respected around the table. It was also during this time she realized that not all c-suite tables and experiences are the same—she now had an opportunity to help chief executive officers and their talented suitemates achieve more than individual excellence—to gain competitive advantage. Today, Green works with leaders aspiring to executive leadership and those in executive ranks who’ve come to terms with this one crucial acknowledgment: what got you here won’t keep you here. Because economies shift, customer expectations shift, and talent competition is fierce, a new playbook is in order, and Green has that playbook for the executive team willing to listen, willing to shift their thinking, and willing to roll up their sleeves and do the work.

Young lives in Maryland, where she tends to exactly three children and one perfect Goldendoodle named Loki James. Home—with an interesting book, jazz playing in the background, and experimenting in the kitchen surrounded by family and loved ones—is her favorite place to be.
