Peggy Simonsen

Peggy Simonsen has been a sailor, skier, and nature lover most of her life. As the owner of an international consulting company, she has traveled for both business and pleasure, experiencing more than sixty countries and all seven continents. Now a retired widow, she continues to seek adventure in far-flung parts of the world with family and friends—not just to observe, but to participate in all life has to offer.

Peggy is also the author of Promoting a Development Culture in Your Organization, about using career development as a change agent, and Career Compass, on managing your career in the twenty-first century. At home, she serves on the board of two conservation organizations and cultivates her Illinois wooded yard with native plants.
