Hi, I’m Kim Dudash—Founder and CEO of Dudash Executive Coaching. I partner with organizations to help their leaders grow, perform, and lead with greater impact. I started this work because I believe deeply in the power of leadership done well. The kind of leadership that transforms not just results, but people.
For over 30 years, I’ve led and developed teams across a wide range of industries—including manufacturing, healthcare, hospitality, entertainment, and tourism. I understand firsthand the complexity leaders face today: managing change, driving results, building resilient teams, and navigating constant demands. That’s why I started this company—to support organizations in developing the kind of leadership that not only delivers outcomes but also creates cultures where people can thrive.
Through executive coaching, group leadership development, and experiential programs, I work with leaders to uncover what’s driving their current performance—and what’s getting in the way. We focus on expanding self-awareness, shifting limiting mindsets, and strengthening the leadership behaviors that move the needle for individuals and teams. My approach combines strategic insight with mindset work—because how we think, lead, and show up every day matters.
I bring a strategic lens to every engagement, using proven tools like the Leadership Circle Profile 360°, iEQ9 Integrative Enneagram, and Hogan Assessments to help leaders understand how they’re perceived, how they show up under pressure, and how to align their intention with their impact.
I’m a Professional Certified Coach (PCC) through the International Coaching Federation, and a Certified Trainer with The Center for the Empowerment Dynamic. I also serve as an Executive Leadership Coach for the University of Tennessee’s Executive MBA Programs and hold a degree in Business Management from Carson-Newman University.
My approach is collaborative, candid, and highly personalized. I build strong relationships with both clients and organizations, designing coaching experiences that support growth at the individual level while driving transformation across the business. My coaching style is strategic, grounded, and customized to meet leaders where they are —and help them grow into the leader they're meant to be.
If your leaders are ready to take the next step, I’d love to be a trusted partner on that journey.
