Growing Perspectives' mission is supporting early career and mid-career professionals and leaders navigate successfully their careers by providing several offerings including webinars, informational sessions and personal coaching. In 2017, Growing Perspectives® was formed out of a desire to help others in their chosen careers in Corporate environments reach their full potential and thrive.  We tailor our offerings to meet your individual needs.  We also have group offerings and tools available.  

Our business is based on these Core Values:

Client Focused - we are committed to our clients' success and growth.

I am Kaisha McCrea, CEO & Founder of Growing Perspectives®. I was the first person in my immediate family to work in a Corporate company so didn't have a play book for the keys to success and was not familiar with social norms in this environment. Now I know first-hand the challenges and opportunities of working in Corporate environments both as an early career professional and as a mid-career professional. I would like to increase exposure and share knowledge to early career professionals to help shorten their learning curves and reduce the time spent learning through trial and error to achieve success. 

I  transitioned successfully through my 20+ year career in several roles and like to share tools and insights to help mid-career professionals achieve and maintain the level of success they desire. My career consists of experience in Manufacturing, Commercial, Improvement , Supply Chain, Six Sigma, Internal Consultant roles including  opportunities to lead and develop team soft-skills, training and  provide coaching to teams and leaders. I have leadership experience in previous positions and previously served as Co-leader of a Corporate Women's resource group. I am skilled in various personality assessments and team dynamic tools. I am currently on the Board of Directors for the Chesterfield Chamber of Commerce for 2023-2025.I look forward to working with you to reach your goals and thrive in your organizations and careers. 

We are located in Midlothian, Virginia. We serve clients across the US in-person and virtually.
