ANDREA T. GOEGLEIN, Ph.D.

Andrea Goeglein is unusual in the world of business. She has used her understated strength and her dynamic ability as a speaker and decision maker to build an international portfolio. She is a media personality, former hotel owner, event organizer, CEO advisor, community activist and author. Not an academic, but a business founder who is academically trained, Andrea Goeglein has been a counselor and personal mentor to over forty CEO’s of privately held companies – the largest employment segment in the nation.

Andrea started out on what she believed was a straight road to success. She discovered that her straight road to success looked much more like a crooked road to fulfillment. Andrea appreciates the paradox of having proudly served as a secretary, to having employed over 70 employees and administrative assistants. Although her career was in full swing without a degree, she pursued her education and eventually attained a Ph.D. 

Founder. President. Developer. Mentor. Although these words all identify Andrea T. Goeglein, Ph.D., the best testimonial to her accomplishments are the long-standing successes of the events, institutions and businesses she has cultivated.
