| A "road warrior" for the last
two decades, Kathleen Ameche is the CEO and President of Ameche
Group LLC (www.amechegroup.com), a company she founded to
help businesswomen maneuver through the business travel maze,
master the corporate environment and create a satisfactory
work-life balance, based on her 20+ years of professional
experience.
To achieve this goal, she began by writing a book - The
Woman Road Warrior: A Woman's Guide to Business Travel
(Agate 2005). As a result, she received requests to make speeches
and other presentations. At these sessions, numerous travelers
shared with her their thoughts about what could make their
travel experiences better. Thus - the A-Way Travel Gear product
line (www.awaytravelgear.com).
Ms. Ameche has also been Vice President of Business Development
for West Monroe Partners, LLC, a business and technology consulting
firm, and the Vice-President/Chief Information Officer for
the Tribune Company, a Fortune 500 media and entertainment
company. She has held senior management positions in the consulting
arm of Geac (formerly Dun & Bradstreet Software), and
she began her career as a consultant with Deloitte, a large
public accounting firm. Ms. Ameche has been a guest speaker
and presenter at industry and professional conferences, seminars,
and universities and has held board positions with several
non-profits. She is also actively involved with the business
of breeding and racing thoroughbred horses. When not on the
road she lives in Chicago with her family.
