Dr Geil Browning
President and Founder, Emergenetics International
Geil Browning, Ph.D., is an author, educator, researcher, speaker and businesswoman. She is the CEO and Owner of Emergenetics International and The Browning Group International, Inc. – official distributor of Emergenetics products. In 2003 she was recognised as Colorado’s Outstanding Entrepreneurial Businesswoman of the Year.
Beginning her career as a teacher, Dr. Browning was an elementary school principal at the age of 26. Her lifelong interest in how people learn ultimately led her to study brain dominance research and to develop the Emergenetics Profile first in a series of instruments that provide useful information on both thinking and behaving attributes. Returning to her educational roots, she developed the STEP (Student/Teacher Emergenetics Profile®), which allows parents and teachers of 9-18 year old students to better understand their children, and to individualise their learning.
Additionally, Dr. Browning founded the Institute of Career Advancement Needs (ICAN Inc.), which sponsors Influence and Focus, two highly acclaimed executive development programmes that have graduated over 2000 participants now in senior management positions worldwide.
Dr. Browning received her doctorate from the University of Nebraska, where she was an adjunct associate professor, and has completed postdoctoral studies at Harvard University.
She has lectured at numerous universities in the United States, Canada, Moscow State University in Russia, Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman in Kuala Lumpur and National University of Singapore.
Geil extends her interest in children as a founding board member of the Kenyan Children Foundation whose mission is to provide transformational experiences for Americans through compassionate involvement with Kenya street children. Frequently, she and her husband, Armistead, organise and lead groups to Nairobi, Kenya where they work with orphaned and destitute children, many of whom are HIV positive.
