Bio: Emma Reynolds-Middleton is CEO and master trainer at Soft Skills Zone. She says that Soft Skills Zone was in her heart since the 1980s when she was in college. Emma had a meltdown giving a public speech, and that was a big turning point in her life.
Emma is a US Army veteran who devoted over 20 years working as a Finance Officer on active duty and the US Army Reserves. Her professional career also spans assignments at the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), Georgia Department of Labor, Georgia Industries for the Blind (GIB), and in the construction industry. Emma has worked in finance, budgeting, program operation and administration, quality assurance, workforce development, and in several leadership positions.
At the same time, Emma has always been engaged in community affairs where she resides. For over a decade she taught pro bono soft skills courses to adults and youths at schools and various non-profit organizations. In 2016, Emma became an Adjunct Faculty at Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine (PCOM) Georgia, in Suwanee, Georgia, with the School of Professional and Applied Psychology, the Organizational Development and Leadership (ODL) Program. She has taught Communication for Leaders, and she teaches the Team Dynamics course to graduate students seeking a Master of Science (MS) in Biomedical Sciences.
When Emma resigned from the workforce, she made a smooth transition into what she's currently doing at Soft Skills Zone: training, credentialing, and coaching others in soft skills development for their professional and personal success.
