About Kim
I served as a US Army Chemical officer and worked for 25 years as a federal defense contractor, specifically in the industry of chemical weapons destruction. I took a short break from the industry to own and operate a successful senior care franchise in honor of my grandmother. But it's the Department of Defense that keeps calling my name. I have a passion to serve the people who work to make our warfighters successful.
When I'm not involved with leadership development, you can find me on the back of my horse trying to herd the neighbor's cattle or serving alongside my husband at our church. Keith and I have been married for 40 years and we have two grown children whom I love to spend time with.
Contact Me. I am looking forward to assisting you on your journey to increased personal growth and greater leadership success.
Member, Women in Defense
Here at Lorica Leadership, we believe that great leaders work among their people, not above their people. We can help you build a team of strong leaders around you, creating better performance, productivity and profitability for the whole organization. As iron sharpens iron, my approach will be simple: be honest, use words you can understand, and give you tools you can use immediately. We like to call it the "Lead, Lift, and Leverage" approach.

COACHING
My coaching involves the ability to understand you: to think how you think, and understand your perspective. From this benchmark, I will place another perspective on top of yours – stretching and growing you to gently see a more empowering way. As a Maxwell Leadership Certified Team member, I can see what you are going through now and what is up ahead. Coaching is foreseeing, paving the way, coming alongside you while helping you achieve goals and overcome limiting paradigms.
​
I offer two levels of coaching support:
​
Individual Coaching – one on one private and confidential coaching
​
When I am working with you one-on-one, it is my highest objective to help you reach your purpose, vision and goals by working through John Maxwell's programs specific to your needs. Together, we will create a strategic, powerful plan for you to gain clarity through a weekly process including, interaction and accountability.

Group Coaching – small setting onsite or via webinar and video technology
​
When I am working in a group setting – although it’s not singular in nature – having the entire group’s input in thinking magnifies the richness of the discussions and results in developing solutions that are above and beyond what any individual can create. The cohesive bond that is formed empowers each person to develop the leader within and shine in a safe environment that nurtures the group as a whole. It is an experience unlike any other and follows the same premise as an academic think tank.
​
Please contact me, and together we'll create the most effective plan to move you forward.

Kim's Testimonials
"Kim was a powerhouse speaker at the Purple Life Conference. Her ability to flip from funny stories to deep revelation is incredible. Kim is Biblically sound in her presentation and uses exceptional props to bring home Truth!"
Angie Nuttle, CEO & Founder
VIP Center for Business Women
Corporate Talent Institute
“There is a motto that United States Marines embolden and live their lives by, that is“Semper Fidelis;” which is Latin for “Always Faithful.” That is exactly who and what my sister Kim is; she is “always faithful” first and foremost to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Not only is she resounding in her faith, but she is also a tried-and-true warrior for Christ. Not a day goes by that she does not don the “full armor of God,” (Eph. 6:10-18), and stand firm in the Word of God. She is a true contender for faith and Truth, which is self-evident in the work that she and I accomplished together on ‘The Crushing Snakes Podcast’”.
Jason R. Eckman
Gunnery Sergeant USMC (ret.)
Co-founder of The Crushing Snakes Podcast
“Kim communicates in a way that everyone in the room knows exactly what she is talking about. She teaches with clarity and makes it relatable. Everyone leaves with increased knowledge and applicable steps to put in action.”
N. Brown
Small Group participant
“I have had the pleasure of both watching Kim excel in the Colson Fellows program and listening and learning from her podcasts on tough cultural issues. She is grounded in Scripture, knowledgeable in science, and unafraid to speak truth – but always with a heart and approach of love and kindness.”
Lydia C.
Colson Fellows Leadership Team, Birmingham, Alabama
"Kim McCutcheon has not only been a dear friend but has also been a mentor and prayer warrior to me personally. I have had the privilege of sitting under her Bible studies and she is a gifted, skilled Bible teacher. Her love for the Lord and the time she pours into her teachings is very evident. She teaches with a passion that makes you want to hear more. The light of Jesus shines through her."
