Executive Profile

Tami King is the founder of Technically Speaking, Inc., and serves as its President. In addition to managing the financial, legal and logistical demands of operating a rapidly growing business, she continues to proactively generate new business while strengthening relationships with current clients and instructors.

Prior to launching the company in 2002, Tami had been working as a recruiter for a Microsoft Learning Solutions partner.  At that time, the IT training market was experiencing difficulties and companies were laying off trainers and going bankrupt.  Several of the technical instructors she had worked with had been financially impacted by this.  Tami believed that if she could help put money in the pockets of others, it would eventually come back to her.  With that motivation combined with Tami’s persistence, the company was formed.

Tami is widely known for her business ethics, her promptness in paying her instructors and vendors, and her desire to provide excellent customer service.

Tami is an active volunteer on the Advisory Board for North East High School’s Center of Information Technology in St. Petersburg, FL.  She is also a mentor for Pinellas County School systems and has assisted in reading programs for second graders in economically challenged areas.

Tami is currently enrolled in Leadership St. Pete (LSP), the second oldest leadership development program in America.  LSP is a dynamic, intensive, interactive experience designed to promote and enhance community leadership through an in-depth introduction to social, economic, business and political issues.

Tami’s vision for the company’s future is one of international growth.  Technically Speaking is involved in extensive IT training outside the U.S., and has instructors capable to teach in non-English speaking languages.

Tiffany Edmondson serves as a Training Coordinator for Technically Speaking.  Her responsibilities include sourcing instructors for clients, obtaining new business through relationship sales management, and logistical management in sourcing instructors for clients.

Tiffany joined the Technically Speaking team in July of 2007.  Her vast expertise of relationship marketing and aggressive advertising ideas proved her to be a good fit for the company.  Tiffany is fluent in Spanish and hopes to build more relationships with Spanish-speaking clients and instructors.

Prior to working for Technically Speaking, Tiffany worked in the property management industry.  In less than 3 years, she worked her way up from Leasing Consultant to Assistant Property Manager, and ultimately to Regional Marketing Manager.  During that time, Tiffany mastered the various aspects of the business: sales and marketing, accounting, management and training.

Tiffany received her Associate’s Degree in Business Administration from Manatee Community College.  She went on to receive her Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration with a minor in Marketing from the University of South Florida.

In her spare time, Tiffany spends as much time with family as possible.  She and her husband Lou love being with their son Trey and enjoying Florida’s beautiful weather.
