It takes more than a degree to get one's career off to a good start. Kelly Tyler knows what it takes and has been
sharing it with local students for seven years. She recently began to expand the reach of her message that
graduates succeed when they combine social savvy with their education. They succeed when they are All-In, just
like more experienced professionals.
Kelly Tyler is an adjunct instructor of management and leadership for the University of Missouri-Kansas City and has
spoken with students at several regional universities including Northwest Missouri State University and Baker University.
She holds an MBA from Rockhurst University, Kansas City MO and a BA from St. Mary's College, Notre Dame IN.
Starting with the job search and all the way through the first six months of a new job, Kelly Tyler shows graduating
seniors what it takes to stand out from the crowd. She shows how they can distinguish themselves from competing
job seekers, which in turn distinguishes their university. She also shows how professional presence makes employees
stand out to get special projects, better assignments, and mentors in the workplace.

"Instead of giving the gift of a card with a check for college graduation, put the check inside
the cover of "Secrets of Seasoned Professionals" and hand it over. 22-year-olds don't care
about cards, anyway, and this has considerably higher utility.
A large portion of the content of may strike you as common sense, but not to the extent that you
already knew it; rather, that it just makes sense, and, consequently, you will remember it.
I have read "Secrets of Seasoned Professionals" in its entirety a few times, and I still occasionally
pick it up the night before starting a project at a new client in order to put me in the right frame
of mind with regard to body language and communication. It's a quick read, but it's to the point
and touches on just about everything young professionals need to know when they're starting
their first real jobs."

"Kelly Tyler is an incredible motivational speaker. After taking a class from her, I
was much more motivated to pursue my personal goals. I have now clearly
defined my goals in life and I am passionately pursuing those goals. Her class
also helped me understand how easy it is to "stand out" in the workplace and
become a "STAR" manager!"
