Linda has deep experience working with Fortune 50 companies and held senior human resource executive positions at Hewlett-Packard and at GE Capital. As Senior HR Executive with GE, Dr. Sharkey established a leadership development effort that became part of the world-renowned Crotonville offerings. This program was named best practice by CEO Jack Welch.

Her co-authored book, Winning with Transglobal Leadership, was named one of the top 30 best business books for 2013.

Dr. Sharkey is a founding member of the Marshall Goldsmith Group, and an inspiring keynote speaker at many global events, including the Global HR Academy with the Conference Board and the World Human Resources Development Conference, where she was honored with the "Super Women Achievement Award."

Renowned leadership coach and thought leader, Marshall Goldsmith, has named Dr. Sharkey as one of the top 100 executive coaches from a field of over 16,000 and she was named to "Trust Across America's 2018 Top Thought Leaders in Trust."

U., EXECUTIVE, NBC

I would use Linda Sharkey in any leadership development program or as a great speaker. I had a big sales meeting for over 300 NBC sales leaders. I brought Linda in to do 2 segments/keynotes - one on the true meaning of leadership and the second on coaching. We got rave reviews on her from a rather tough crowd. She is inspiring, yet practical and tells relevant stories to make her points.

We specifically chose Linda Sharkey from thought leaders around the world based on her unique, researched, and lived insights about how successful leadership works in the world of multinationals and importantly how it can be developed. Her theory about 'transglobal leadership' resonated powerfully with our audience of multinational executives providing them with practical steps for improving their own leadership effectiveness and that of others. She was a delight to work with.
