It has been said that behind every great leader is a great team or a coach to cheer them along. Busy executives and business owners often recognize they need help but are not sure who to turn to and feel that bringing a consultant or coach into their life will be too invasive or costly.

“I believe that everyone has a story to tell and very seldom do they find an outlet to share it! There are so many opportunities where people can network and get leads. However not many opportunities for sharing ideas or building strong centers of influence. I love history and learning about why a person started their business or what experience they are able to share with others. This is why I have been so passionate about the creation of IBAL International Business Academies of Learning. IBAL is a place where Entreprenuers, Business Owners and Professionals can come together in an atmosphere of trust and mutual respect to share their vision and creativity and have the opportunity to share the skills and tools necessary for their personal and business success. ”
IBAL believes in the mastermind approach to building business and Kathleen is proud to be one of the C0-Founders of this fast growing community based organization.

Why she isn’t booked out for 10 years running is beyond me. Folks, this is one Smart Cookie! Really! She is truly a gem when it comes to intelligent growth of a company. Get her on the phone and see how she can help you!” ~Andy Greider , Host, Producer, Writer , Uniqueness is Power“I highly recommend Kathleen Smart and the work that she does at IBAL.
