Our Team.
At Kolmeta, we value the power of the collective. It’s an inherent part of our name which is inspired by the Latin root words “change together”. We celebrate it, we reward it, we empower our clients to collaborate and believe that the success of the individual may only truly be realized if the collective is successful.
About our COLLECTIVE.
Throughout our careers, we have been inspired by a collection of experienced mentors, international influencers and expert practitioners who have allowed us to have incredibly fulfilling professional lives… and we have also seen first hand what can happen to employees and organizations that do not have that inspirational or even foundational core value system in place that motivates individuals or achieves business results.
Driven by the intent to make a difference for organizations and the professionals that work for them, our purpose is to cultivate inspiring environments for professionals to thrive and allow organizations (and the collectives within) to achieve their most audacious goals.
KIMberlea Kozachenko
CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER & FOUNDER
As a proudly born and raised Albertan, I am a corporate executive leader and a successful entrepreneur who has made an impact in industries such as finance, energy, healthcare, government, academics, retail, and more. I hold professional designations of Registered Professional Recruiter (R.P.R.) and Certified Leadership Coach (C.L.C.) and am an internationally published writer, with my works printed in digital copy in Canada and the United States, and in hardcover in the United Kingdom.
I'm humbled to be a sought-after international speaker and influencer to the talent and business community and have been invited to share my exponential ideas and accomplishments on stages at world-class events for companies such as LinkedIn, Glassdoor, MediaCorp, numerous professional designation associations, Universities and more. I am also very grateful to have been formally mentored by some of the best executives and educators in the world from organizations including Google and Singularity University.
In current and previous roles, I've led the creation and successful implementation of numerous leading-edge business development tools for small start-ups and large enterprises including recruitment initiatives, talent development programs, career advancement programs, and technology platforms.
I am passionate about the personal and professional development of those around me and feel the greatest impacts can be made at the team level. In order to achieve this, strong leadership practices are imperative. As such, I offer comprehensive leadership learning and executive coaching to empower leaders to be effective and successful. I also volunteer my time generously to the intellectual advancement of Canada's post-secondary student population in the form of mentorship.
Through my company KOLMETA, I want to help individuals and organizations achieve their most audacious goals. I believe relentless innovation, genuine connections and transparency will change global talent practices for the better.
