Joyce Wietrecki is a speaker, author, and coach with over 30 years of experience helping leaders unlock peak performance. She works with companies to transform managers into leaders that top talent won’t leave.

Joyce Wietrecki has partnered with Fortune 500 companies, including Walgreens, Reynolds Consumer Products, and Kraft Heinz to elevate leadership effectiveness, align talent strategy, and build high-performing teams.


Today, Joyce focuses on empowering companies to transform managers into extraordinary leaders. Through Wietrecki Consulting & Associates, she delivers customized leadership development, executive coaching, and team performance solutions that close critical skill gaps and drive business results.


As the competition for top talent increases, forward-thinking organizations know that exceptional leadership is the key to retention, engagement, and long-term success. Research shows that poor leadership is one of the top drivers of turnover. That’s exactly where Joyce’s programs make the difference.

She has served as Past President of the Chicago Chapter of the Association for Talent Development and Co-Dean of the National Speaker Association Speakers Academy of Central Florida.


She is certified in Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), Situational Leadership II, DiSC Profile, StrengthsFinders, Emotional Intelligence, and Thomas Kilmann Conflict assessments.
