| In 2001, I graduated from Business Coach Development System.
Shortly afterward, I began business coaching full time and founded
Dona Kerr Coaching, one of only a handful of coaching businesses
in the Grand Rapids, Michigan area.
For sixteen years, I was a co-owner of an Internet Technology-related
business. Before that, I spent a number of years working with
a non-profit organization and a shipping company.
As an active community volunteer, I have extensive leadership
experience in education organizations, non-profit community
organizations, and my church. The skills I developed in these
roles are a tremendous asset to my coaching expertise.
When deciding to become a business coach, I “listened”
to my life. My interests, life experience, and work history
all pointed me toward becoming a business coach. My experiences
as an entrepreneur, manager, sales person, creative person,
and stay-at-home mom give me the insight I need to help persons
in these fields recognize, develop, and use their knowledge,
skills, and talents.
My client list includes a variety of professionals: entrepreneurs,
owners of small businesses, sales teams, and mid-level managers,
with an emphasis on entrepreneurs and sales people who need
to achieve both balanced lives and business growth.

A wide-ranging variety of interests and hobbies keep me
active and continually growing in an enriched, balanced lifestyle.
I am a 3rd Degree Karate Black Belt and certified cardio-karate
instructor, a breast cancer survivor, and a single mother
of two incredible teenaged daughters. Travel and more travel
top my list of favorite activities, as well as cooking, reading,
walking in the sunshine, and self development (yes, I think
it’s fun!). |
