Kim's mission is to teach vital tools essential for business success beyond what is taught in business schools. He earned his MBA from the University of Washington, Foster School of Business. ​ Kim is the former Commodore of the Seattle Yacht Club, and a 39-year Rotarian. While serving as Rotary Liaison with World Vision, the collaborative teams he initiated have completed over $20 million in clean water projects with over 1 million beneficiaries in developing countries worldwide. He is a business consultant, proven leader, public speaker and motivator, a pilot for 40 years, and holds a USCG Captains license. Kim lives with his wife in Bellevue, WA.

He spoke to us about "Opportunity Drives Success" (taking from his top-rated book, Tireless).  Learn to visualize Opportunity, act on it, change the way you think while improving your Rotary Life.
