Kathy Oneto is an executive and life-work coach, speaker, and facilitator who is committed to helping people thrive on their terms, both in life and in work. She is also a strategy executive who bridges her two worlds by applying strategic approaches to life and work decisions and practices. Kathy is the founder of Sustainable Ambition(R) and host of the Sustainable Ambition podcast. Her mission is to champion more expansive views of success and ambition and help people craft a personal and work life that offers more joy, satisfaction, and fulfillment--a life that lets them be ambitious with more adventure and ease and less angst. Kathy started asking questions at a young age about success, ambition, and navigating life and work and has used her work and career as a touchstone to guide decisions at different stages in her life. As she reflected on her adult life and career, she found that she had been intuitively living and working according to the Sustainable Ambition Method. Today, she works with clients and company employees in applying the method and helping them find personal motivation in their work and goals, architect their next life and work arcs, and manage their effort for more resilience and sustainability. As a strategist, Kathy has had a twenty-five-year career working across business, branding, innovation, and talent. In her work today, she helps organizations illuminate their most compelling value and build strategic road maps to guide sustainable action. Proud of her public education, Kathy has a BS in commerce from the University of Virginia and received her MBA from the University of California, Berkeley's Haas School of Business. Her writing has appeared in Fast Company , Brandingmag , and MediaPost . She's been a guest lecturer at the business schools at Berkeley, the University of San Francisco, Duke University, and the University of Colorado. Kathy lives in San Francisco with her husband and the fog. As a former triathlete and marathon runner, she's happiest building up her resilience and sustainability outdoors, where you can often find her running in Golden Gate Park, walking the streets of her city or one she's traveled to, or enjoying the experience of reading with the sun on her face.
