Kari Zeller

Kari Zeller advises leaders making consequential decisions and leading organizations through strategic and identity-level change. As founder and CEO of TGN Consulting, she works with boards, CEOs, and executive teams navigating transformation, strategic pivots, and technological disruption. A U.S. Air Force combat veteran, Kari began her career leading complex operations where judgment was tested by consequence, not theory. That experience shaped her conviction that leadership is responsibility: deciding before certainty arrives and carrying what follows. Known for telling hard truths and revealing the hidden conditions that drive behavior inside organizations, she has spent more than two decades helping leaders at the highest levels of the military, higher education, and enterprise create coherence under pressure and mobilize people to deliver futures they are not yet equipped for.
