Technology didn't just find Kimberly Consevage. It shaped her. And her path there started somewhere almost nobody expects: a classroom.
It's easy to assume people just land in roles like Kimberly's. This conversation pulls back the curtain on the real journey, from Teach For America to leading enterprise-wide digital transformations, a story of reinvention, resilience, and purpose. Live from Charlotle's Queen City, Kimberly opens up about how she went from educator to one of the most trusted voices in the Workday ecosystem.
Who she is: Kimberly is a Senior Manager at BDO and a former educator who started in Teach For America before technology reshaped her path. She didn't arrive here in a straight line, she earned it through reinvention and years of guiding organizations through hard change.
What she does: She leads enterprise-wide digital transformations in the Workday ecosystem, helping organizations navigate the messy, meaningful work of change.
What she believes: That trust isn't a title, it's a process you earn. Real change is about building change fitness instead of change fatigue, and leading with strategy, empathy, and intention.
How she works: With warmth, wit, and clarity. Kimberly leads from the middle, debunking myths like "Go Live" and helping people find courage in the middle of complex change.
