Karen Valencic (Vuh-len-sick) is not just a speaker and business leader; she's a transformative force in the world of conflict mastery and leadership. Can you imagine a business environment, or a WORLD, in which people, despite conflict, get their work done with ease and grace? Bringing this to reality is Karen's mission. With over three decades of experience, Karen has honed her craft, blending her expertise in science, martial arts, and communication to create the groundbreaking Spiral Impact® method.

As the President of Spiral Impact, Karen brings a unique perspective to performance improvement for leaders and teams. Her method, Spiral Impact®, offers a simple yet profound way to master conflict, foster collaboration, and solve problems with grace. Through her books, including the best selling Black Belt Edition of Spiral Impact, Karen provides tangible tools and insights to empower individuals and teams to navigate challenging situations with ease.

Karen's journey from corporate engineer to performance improvement expert is as inspiring as it is unconventional. With a background in mechanical engineering and a career at Delco Remy, a division of General Motors, Karen was one of the first female engineers in her field. Drawing inspiration from her experiences in engineering and her dedication to aikido, the Japanese art of reconciliation, Karen developed Spiral Impact® to help individuals and organizations thrive in the face of conflict and change.

Beyond her undoubtable expertise in her field, Karen is also a distinguished speaker. Karen speaks nationally at all types of conferences and is known for her entertaining, audience-involving presentations, which are full of actionable insights that individuals and teams can put straight to use.
