The allure of figuring out ‘how things work’ for organizations, processes, and people (as opposed to anything that involves a screwdriver or a wrench), and how they could work better led Karen into the world of business and career transformation.
Karen has worked from home for the last decade, both as a senior executive and as a consultant to organizations in many industries, including IT, Health, and Insurance, as well as the Not for Profit sector. From the comfort of her home she has successfully negotiated multi-million dollar deals, led national teams, and delivered major projects (and written books!).
Her career insights have been featured on the pages of major magazines and newspapers and appeared regularly in international publications. Karen’s blog careertipstogo.com has been included in the Top 100 Career Blogs on Feedspot and ThriveYard.
Karen’s extensive working-from-home experience – both the things that work and those that are a little bit tricky – led her to write her second book, Professional in Pajamas: 101 Tips for Working from Home.
While she’s never been tempted to mow the lawn while working from home, she admits that she does sometimes work in her pajamas!

Reviews of Hot Tips For Career Chicks: Unlocking the CODE to Success by Karen Adamedes
What women want (and need) on their career path
When I thought about reading a career book for women though I am a man, I first thought about the movie “What Women Want.” Would I be getting some inside information that would help me to better understand women (which may have proven to be a scary thought.)? My discovery: very enlightening and very useful, for men and women. This is an excellent, well organized, career reference book with special insights for women and their special challenges in the workplace and on their career path. The author, Karen Ademedes, clearly demonstrates her own expertise as someone who understands the career ladder and corporate world.
