Kathy's Bio
Retired Air Force LtCol Kathy Gallowitz is an award-winning businesswoman and John Maxwell certified leadership speaker, trainer and coach who speaks about Veteran-hiring and retention best practices, Veteran inclusion, Military Culture, her leadership journey, and “Military Ministry.” The Veteran Talent Strategies she shares help employers boost productivity, reduce turnover and generate cost savings. “Military Ministries,” tied to congregations, provide military-connected people practical support, a sense of belonging, and promote spiritual resiliency. Kathy is the Founder & CEO of Vanguard Veteran, LLC, author of “Beyond ‘Thank You For Your Service,’ The Veteran Champion Handbook for Civilians,” and has Masters degrees in Nursing and Political Science. She grew up as a Navy ‘brat,’ served nearly 30 years in the U.S.A.F. as a Nurse or Public Affairs Officer, and is married to an Army combat Veteran. It's her life’s calling to equip civilians to become Veteran Champions.
