Cindy Kraft’s Summary

Cindy is America’s leading Career & Personal Brand Strategist for Corporate Finance Executives with 14 years of experience helping clients understand their marketability, articulate their value, and position themselves as the clear and compelling choice.

Her clients are among the top echelon of finance gurus who understand their unique status requires unique packaging. A typical senior–level finance executive spends so many hours working in his job that he has, by necessity, shelved managing his career.

At the point where he begins to understand that his job has suddenly become his life, that he wants more, that there is no corporate loyalty, and that he is at the mercy of a CEO and Board of Directors … this is when that executive will seek help.

She partners with her clients to take back control of their careers, putting them back in the driver’s seat to pursue the opportunities that are the perfect fit for the gifts and talents they most enjoy and are fueled by their internal passion. Her intensive process ensures that her clients have the competitive marketing documents and solid value–oriented understanding to achieve elitist positioning and visibility in the market.

Her client list includes CFOs of private and public corporations, private equity firms, and not–for–profit organizations as well as other visionary and accomplished senior–level finance executives seeking to position themselves for those $300,000+ coveted leadership positions.

Cindy writes regularly for the Financial Executives Network Group (FENG), authors a monthly coaching column for the Association of Finance Professionals (AFP), and contributes to the Financial Executives International (FEI) newsletter.
