Personal Details

Bio

My name is Maria Kellis. I am a Leadership Coach, Intuitive Business Consultant, Inspirational Speaker, and Best-Selling Author.

I work with business leaders, intrapreneurs, and entrepreneurs to strengthen their leadership and create successful products and services that are aligned with their true voice.

I am originally from Greece. Now I am focused on teaching through Maria Kellis International, a company operating globally with clients from over 15 countries.

I hold 3 MIT degrees (Engineering School and Sloan School of Management) and I was involved in teaching entrepreneurship classes at the Sloan School even as a student as well as in organizing the 50K competition (and having one of my companies be a runner up).

Besides co-founding multiple technology companies in the US, I worked in high-level positions for the Greek government.

These days I share my time between Thailand, Greece, Cyprus, Bali, and the United States.

For myself, I achieved a life of independence and freedom and since then I have been focusing on teaching others how to achieve the same. The question I am focusing on now is “how can we do it even faster?” and that is what is driving my work.

Journey to Business Mastery

You are a doer, right? A smart, driven, high-achiever. Yet things have not been working out the way you hoped they would. You have been working long hours, devoting all your time to your business and career, but you feel like you’ve never reached your true potential.
You’re trying to grow a meaningful, successful business, but most days it’s hard to connect to the dream that started you on this journey.
The stress and imbalance of your life has taken a toll on you, and you’re dealing with the consequences – chronic stress, emotional burnout, and maybe even a serious physical illness.
Your relationship with money feels complicated. You yearn to take your business to the next level, but there’s always some drama or unforeseen crisis popping up. “How is this happening to me again?” you wonder.
You watch yourself repeating the same mistakes, trapped in the same old patterns over and over again.You yearn to feel in control of your life and business. I am here for your transformation.
