Bonnie Wingate
"In developing relationships with clients, I have an opportunity to hear the bold ambitions and aspirations they have for themselves and others in their companies. Sharing that with them and working with them as they discover how to successfully navigate barriers and challenges inspires me and enriches my life."
PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
Bonnie brings thirty years of experience in sales, systems, training and development, and service to her career at Insigniam Performance.

BONNIE AFTER WORK
Ever since early school days growing up in the Midwest, Bonnie has been a volunteer in numerous community-building enterprises, often assuming roles in leadership and governance. She was formerly on two boards of two nonprofit enterprises aimed at making opportunities for self-development and education available to under-served communities. Bonnie is also passionate about traveling and exploring cultures—she creates deep, rich, lasting friendships with people she meets -- for example being a pen pal since 1964 with Teresa from Wales. She raised her son and daughter as a single mom, beginning with their preteen years, and is very proud of their accomplishments. One is now a college student, and the other a recent graduate of the University of Delaware and is now in graduate school. Bonnie credits the extraordinary teachers throughout her life for expanding her horizons and offering her a world of learning, growth, and opportunity.
