TRAVELS FROM BRISBANE WITHIN AUSTRALIA & INTERNATIONALLY
Karen Schmidt CSP is passionate about helping people create sustainable success…because she knows what it feels like when you don’t.
It took her 14 years of working in 7 different industries before she discovered her strength, completed a degree in Adult Education and started her own speaking and coaching business.
Over the next 20 years Karen worked with organisations across 8 countries in the Asia Pacific region to develop their people. She also helped many individuals get promoted, change careers or start businesses.
Along the way she wrote 5 books, won awards and received accreditation. But that success was temporary and she found out the hard way what unsustainable success feels like.
Her goal now is to show others how to put in place strategies that reduce their stress and increase their personal satisfaction so they can create sustainable success.
Karen is a Certified Speaking Professional, an internationally recognised accreditation held by less than 10% of members of the Global Speakers Federation.
She is available for keynote presentations, breakout sessions, workshops and as a panel member or panel leader.

“Karen was colourful, professional and polished. Even though she is a very well recognised and awarded speaker, she is still very much ‘real’ and, from an event organisers prospective, so wonderfully easy to work with.”
“Karen’s thought provoking approach generated very positive insight, learning and great feedback from our clients. I would highly recommend Karen as your next presenter.”
