executive assessment & performance coaching as well as career
transition counseling.
In
and out of college by the age of 19, Alfus-Rothman began her career as
a leading marketing professional for both the IBM and Itel Corporations. Her work in sales led to her interest in the psychology and behavior of people in the workplace. That
interest, coupled with her family history of successful
entrepreneurship (Wendy’s mother was a pioneer in the field of women
and entrepreneurship), led to her own successful business start-ups.
Today,
Wendy is an elected member of The Committee of 200, an organization for
pre-eminent women Presidents, CEOs, and senior executives (she and her
mother are the only mother/daughter members not in the same business). She is a published author, speaker, broadcaster, and recognized expert in maximizing human behavior at work.

international career management firm, and she is primary contributing
author to four best-selling career-management books including Finding Jobs That Don’t Exist in Companies You’ve Never Heard Of.
