I have been training and managing training functions for over 25 years-- in the Air Force, as a military contractor, and within the corporate sector. I love talent development and helping others reach their potential. Likewise, I have a personal love of learning! My wife calls it my “addiction.”

In my first job after retiring from the military, I was tasked to develop a course to help change a misalignment in Air Force culture, following in the wake of a horrific sexual assault scandal. The resulting course was successful in helping improve that culture. I know how hard…and important that job can be, and I hope I can help you with the lessons I’ve learned along the way.

As for credentials, I’ve earned a Master of Science in Training and Development, as well as graduate certificates in Strategic Human Resources Leadership and Organizational Improvement. I’m a Certified Professional in Training Management, I hold a Bronze Certification in Kirkpatrick Method of Training Evaluation, and I am a Certified John Maxwell Team Trainer, Speaker, and Coach.

In my spare time (I’m not actually sure what that is!), I like to spend time with my family, read, take classes (of course), and I hit the mat with DDP Yoga almost every day.

Feel free to reach out to me with your feedback.  You can connect with me on LinkedIn, and you can link to my webpage from there.  You can also email me at charlie@charlie-monk.com.  I hope you enjoy my class, and I look forward to hearing from you.
