What’s your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
Without a doubt, it is the impact I am able to drive with women. I am so honored to be a small piece of the transformations, and successes my clients and members share with me on a daily basis. When I receive emails citing promotions, raises, lifestyle changes, and incredible accomplishments my clients share as a result of being empowered, increased confidence, improved negotiation skills, or a connection they made as a result of my community – I couldn’t be more proud.

“I had never had the opportunity to be the entrepreneur, the person in charge,” says Cleary.
“You can still be in a corporate job with an entrepreneurial mindset, but it was time for me to go out on my own.”
Today, Cleary harnesses her mix of entrepreneurial drive and corporate battle scars as founder and chief leadership coach of ACCELLE.
Based in Toronto, Canada, she runs programs specifically for women around the world looking to accelerate their personal and professional success.

more ABOUT KRISTINA
After 25+ years in the technology industry, including two successful exits, I decided to leave my EVP and CMO position within a global technology HCM organization to help high-performing individuals and teams accelerate their performance by supercharging their marketing and leadership efforts through one-on-one executive coaching and consulting.
Years of leadership experience and international certified coaching combine to form my unique toolkit which includes winning templates and strategies to augment and amplify existing skill sets and plans.
With a focus on marketing, leadership development and women in leadership, I enable people and organizations no matter what phase they are in, to leverage over 25 years of experience and tools to support them in their journey for fast and successful growth.
Outside the office you can find me spending time with my husband of 20 years and as Chief Mom to my teenaged daughter and son. When not getting beat by my kids at ping pong, I manage work-life integration by effectively incorporating my passions including reading, running, spinning and team sports including hockey, volleyball and soccer.
