Kim Hanson’s leadership at LearningRx blends education roots, digital adaptation and mission-driven expansion across international markets.
- Kim Hanson is the CEO of LearningRx, leading with faith and purpose.
- Hanson emphasizes empathy, continuous learning, and personal vision.
- Pioneered virtual brain training during COVID to expand reach globally.
Hanson's journey in educating started in inner-city classrooms, where she wielded chalk against ignorance. Her early battles in Nashville and Minneapolis have influenced how she leads today—emphasizing empathy over authority, and listening over dictation. Alongside her father and LearningRx founder, Ken Gibson, Hanson has co-authored pivotal works, broadening the understanding of cognitive improvement.
Her leadership style is heavily influenced by her personal life. With four child co-authors of her parenting manual, Hanson learned to see, hear, and believe in people—a philosophy she carries into her professional sphere. Each child is a testament to her leadership philosophy: nurture to thrive.
The daring pivot from exclusive in-person brain training to an inclusive virtual platform during the COVID shutdown marked Hanson's innovative stride. This shift transcended geographical constraints, reaching suburban serenity and urban hustle alike.
But it isn't all about business for Hanson. She melts her downtime into pottery while cheering for the Green Bay Packers, creating balance in a life dedicated to growth and advocacy.
