Past Keynote Speakers

2020: Chellee Siewert

Chellee's prior work with corporations, sports entities, and nonprofits made establishing a company a natural progression. She partners with athletes, coaches and teams empowering them to impact lives. Her clients include JJ Watt Foundation, Carson Wentz AO1 Foundation, Adam Thielen Foundation, Vince Lombardi Cancer Foundation, Bart & Cherry Starr Fund and the Milwaukee Bucks Foundation among others.

Chellee's dedication to philanthropy - not only in her professional life, but in her personal life as well - is an inspiration. An alumna of the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay, Chellee was named a 2014 “40 Under 40” by the Milwaukee Business Journal. She is currently active in the community serving on the Board of Regents at Wisconsin Lutheran College. Outside of work, she cherishes her time with her husband, Brett, and her sons, Cole and Cade.

2019: Kimberly Joy Krueger

Kimberly Joy Krueger has overcome some of life’s toughest struggles with beauty, dignity and grace, looking forward and never looking back. A third-generation entrepreneur, she serves others by helping them to see their true value and reach their full leadership potential. She has been a mother to 12 kids for 30 years, and coach, author, publisher, and public speaker for 13 years. Kimberly has also been featured as Guest Life Coach on FOX6’s Real Milwaukee morning television show. Each one of these roles has required her to lead, but Kimberly admits she has made every leadership mistake in the book. Grateful that human beings learn more from their failures than successes, she also admits that these mistakes have afforded her a lot of wisdom. Known as a master storyteller, Kimberly shares this wisdom with humor and passion. Her closest friends will tell you that she is a “a mom to many and a friend to all.” For fun, she transforms into “Biker Chic” and rides alongside her husband, Scott. Her audiences are inspired to self-leadership in order to become extraordinary influencers and make their mark on the world around them. For more information, visit kimberlyjoykrueger.com.
