Hello — I’m Helen Wilkie, The Executive’s Book Coach. I help executives, senior managers and business professionals achieve their goal of writing their books.

I’ve had a long, eclectic career that spanned the worlds of big business, small business, professional practices and non-profits. I’ve started several businesses of my own — some that did rather well and others best forgotten. The most professionally and personally fulfilling time of my life began in the early nineties when I accidentally found the world of professional speaking, where I specialized in communication at work. Since professional speakers are expected to write books, I did. In fact, I wrote several books — and that brought me into the world of books, where I happily reside today.

 

Out of my entire experience, two areas are most interesting and intriguing to me: business and books. As The Executive’s Book Coach I have brought these two together, which is why I love what I do — and probably is why I am good at it!

 

I help my clients achieve their goal of writing a book through my editing, coaching and occasional ghostwriting services, entering the picture at whatever point the author needs me. I will admit that book coaching is my favorite, because nothing gives me more pleasure than watching someone with an idea take their first tentative steps, and then work through the process with my guidance until they are finally holding in their hands a real, honest-to-goodness book with their name on it as the author.
