ABOUT MIKI

Miki Feldman Simon is a Certified Executive Coach (PCC) with over 25 years of corporate experience in the United States, Israel, and Australia. She enjoys the fast-paced environment of start-ups and scale-ups, where she has spent most of her career. Under her tenure in HR, marketing, and executive leadership, she has led multiple companies to successful exits and has gained deep understanding of the challenges executives face. She brings this expertise into coaching, where she partners with her clients to overcome the obstacles and challenges in leading and growing organizations. Miki has an M.S. in Organizational Behavior, and a B.A. in Psychology and Educational Counseling.

Passionate about equality in leadership, Miki has also dedicated her career to helping women develop and execute leadership skills for sustained success. Under her HR leadership, the software company Profitect achieved gender parity across all levels — with a 50% female management team leading the company’s finance, marketing, program management, human resources, and customer success departments. She continues this in her startup, IamBackatWork, which is dedicated to helping women return to work and thrive in their careers.

Miki enjoys a good challenge, whether professionally (successfully reinventing her career multiple times) or in her personal life (getting fit at 50 to summit Mount Kilimanjaro).

She loves passing this passion on to her clients and audience, inspiring them to explore their perceived limits, accept change, and embrace the growth that comes with it.

Miki is honored to be a member of the inaugural cohort of Forefront (powered by Marshall Goldsmith and the 100 Coaches!), where she works with the world’s top coaches. She has been interviewed by the Boston Globe and quoted in Huffington Post, Society for Human Resource Management, Business News Daily, Knox News and more.

An avid traveler and a global citizen, she calls Lexington, Massachusetts home, where she lives with her husband and 2 dogs. Miki is also the mother of 2; her son works as an Avalanche Forecaster in Missoula, Montana, and her daughter is a student at McGill University in Montreal, Canada.
