Tradewinds Career Consulting
It's All About Results
At Tradewinds Career Consulting, we thrive on the challenge to deliver world-class, customized training for global success—but our greatest reward is hearing our clients’ stories of growth and achievement. We go beyond facts and tips, equipping leaders with cross-cultural capability, perspective, engagement, and adaptability skills. What our clients learn aren’t just concepts. Our clients transform these intercultural skills into powerful, productive, inclusive strategies in their own workplaces to accomplish their initiatives with their new signature management style.
Creating Tradewinds has allowed me to bring my cross-cultural expertise to develop a sophisticated approach to global management and skill-building and to share that with other global professionals. But don’t take it from me—see what our clients and colleagues have to say about our work.

The partnership during the process was immensely beneficial, successful and generous.”

“Monica is a frequent guest lecturer in my Master’s Program courses at American University. Leveraging workplace simulations, Monica enables students to see firsthand how limited intercultural skills can disrupt team dynamics, stall projects and career growth. As they witness these impacts, students begin applying the intercultural techniques they’ve learned, bridging classroom theory with real-world practice.”
