About Karen M. Caito, CPC, ELI-MP
As the Confidence Coach for Introverts, I specialize in activating change for introverted professionals to leverage their natural skills and increase confidence so they can excel in an extroverted workplace. My process is not to change the introvert, but rather to teach them how to harness their natural gifts and to shine by being themselves.
After earning my Bachelor of Science Degree in Marketing, I began a 34-year career in pharmaceutical sales. It was while working in that field that I learned of the difficulties introverts face when competing with extroverts for promotions and new job opportunities. Being an introvert myself, I felt very connected to the process of working with other introverted professionals to teach them how to use their natural gifts to achieve great success.
I became a Professional Coach, being trained by the world-class Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching (iPEC), as well as a Certified Career Coach through The Five O'Clock Club, America's Premier Career-Coaching and Outplacement Service Program.
These skill-sets and tools allow me to work with introverted professionals to become and remain more confident, find their true passions and achieve the successful careers they’ve always dreamed of, all while remaining authentic and yes, introverted.
I live in Painted Post, New York which is in the heart of The Finger Lakes Region, I have 2 lovely step-daughers, my children's half-sisters, Nicole,and Kendra, and my 2 children Patrick and Maxwell Rose.
