About Me

Karen Clem – Founder & Chief Zest Officer, Clementine Talent Strategies

 

I’m a trusted talent development strategist with over 20 years of experience designing impactful learning experiences across a variety of industries. My work spans the entire employee lifecycle—from onboarding and frontline development to executive coaching and enterprise-wide leadership strategy.


With more than 15 years in leadership roles, I partner with individuals, teams, and senior executives to unlock potential, enhance performance, and build cultures rooted in trust, alignment, and accountability. I’m known for blending strategic insight with practical, actionable learning that truly sticks.


My background includes an undergraduate degree in Psychology from Southwestern University and a Master of Science in Applied Technology, Learning and Development from the University of North Texas. I’m certified in a range of tools and methodologies including MBTI, EQ-i 2.0, FIRO-B, Insights Discovery, and Everything DiSC. 


Having worked as both a corporate leader and a consultant, I bring a unique perspective and hands-on experience to every project—whether I’m facilitating a workshop, advising leadership teams, or designing scalable, people-centered talent strategies.

Industry Experience

I’ve supported both domestic and global organizations across a wide range of industries, including SaaS, technology, city government, nonprofit, environmental cleanup and waste management, hospitality and hotel management, multifamily property management, higher education, restaurants, oil and gas, transportation, retail, and telecommunications.
