Welcome! 

I’m Vered Kogan, and I’m so happy you’re here!

I believe that every person is capable and deserving of creating the life they desire. My life’s mission is to empower and inspire people to discover what they deeply desire and to believe in their highest potential.

I am the Founder and CEO of the Momentum Institute, having over 20 years of experience helping senior executives and teams navigate personal and organizational change. The mission of the Momentum Institute is to help leaders develop the skills and mindsets to achieve their potential and successfully manage change in today’s disruptive environment — while inspiring their teams to do the same.

I started my career as a Civil Engineer, graduating from the University of Toronto. After working in structural testing at an aerospace manufacturer, I went on to earn an MBA from the Schulich School of Business specializing in Strategic Management. I then joined PricewaterhouseCoopers as a Management Consultant, helping business executives prepare their organizations for change. Since then, I have coached hundreds of executives and entrepreneurs in my practice, as well as at Lee Hecht Harrison, the world’s leading outplacement firm

As a seasoned speaker and workshop leader, I deliver keynote presentations and award-winning workshops that inspire professionals in all industries and functional areas to navigate change and reach their full potential.

I have volunteered at the Fresh Start Women’s Foundation in Phoenix since 2005 to support women through personal and career transitions.
