About – NATE KLEIN LEADERSHIP

Nate Klein

Hey there, hi there, and hello there, my name is Nate Klein. First and foremost, I am a husband to my wondermous wife, Jenny, and a proud father to our four lively children. As an educator with Junior Achievement of Eastern Iowa, I strive to embody the principles of servant leadership in everything I do.

Time as a leader in Corporate America, a management professor in higher education, and as an executive in the not-for profit sector have provided me great opportunities to learn from insightful leaders. Also, I have served in various leadership roles for several not-for profit boards, collaborated on innovative programs for community development, delivered keynote addresses, and facilitated leadership development workshops for organizations large and small.

Lifelong learning is a passion of mine, and I am proud to have earned my bachelor’s in business from Mount Mercy University, an MBA from Emory University, and a doctorate in interdisciplinary leadership from Creighton University where I studied the impact servant leaders have on employee engagement.

I believe that great leadership begins with a foundation of self-awareness, is rooted in positivity, and thrives when we focus on the principles of servant leadership.

Nate Klein is the fuel an organization needs to build a collaborative work environment, one that inspires others, where everyone lifts others up, as all work to excel, and achieve uncommon results. Nate is the kind of leader that knows the power of “together we, can and will.” Nate builds teams focused on collaboration, understanding that togetherness and unity, build strength. Nate is a dynamic leader, one that understands the delicate balance that must exist between the mind, and the heart, when leading and developing others. "

"Collaboration and inspiration are the keys to transformational leadership. As a transformational leader, Dr. Nate Klein has the ability to help individuals grow while also encouraging them to work as a team member. He is able to develop and communicate compelling future-oriented visions, encourage innovation and creativity, and empower his team members to take ownership of their work and embrace positive change. Nate’s leadership inspires others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more!"

"I worked with Nate as he was a co-advisor for Student Government at Mount Mercy University while I was a student. Nate understands that leadership requires differing opinions and people to come together to meet organizational goals and allows us to navigate multiple goals at once. Nate effectively worked with students and administrators to advocate for student interests, advance the organization forward, and transform what we, as students, thought we were capable of. Without his expertise, many beneficial projects wouldn’t have been created. To have worked with Nate means that I have a greater ability to work with others to ensure we are thinking critically about issues, welcoming the dissenting voices into our discussions, and creating the best possible outcome for those we serve.
