Ann Gibson, CCP
Career Counseling, Performance Improvement,
Outplacement, & Human Resources

Ann Gibson, CCP, has an extensive background in career counseling, performance improvement coaching, outplacement, and human resources. Her career choice resulted from switching her college major from psychology to business administration. Luckily, the school she was attending, Louisiana Tech University, had a business degree with a personnel management option – and thus her career in Human Resources was born! She must be in the right profession, because her temperament according to the Keirsey Temperament Sorter is “Career Counselor”. Her husband and 14-year-old son, also agree, because she interrogates and advises them on a regular basis!

She has directed all aspects of human resources in the oil industry, for University of Houston, and for the YMCA of Greater Houston. During her twenty years of experience, she has worked with many types of individuals. She became particularly interested in working with those people who were unhappy in their jobs or who wanted to improve their performance, but really didn’t know how.

Ann trains large and small groups on a variety of topics ranging from leadership skills to conflict resolution. Through her work at Career Visions, an outplacement firm, she taught individuals how to write a resume, how to interview, and how to seek and land a great job.

“Dedicated” and “determined” are two adjectives that describe Ann. She never gives up on other people and she stays focused on her own goals. Her biggest accomplishment was successfully completing the 2000 Houston Marathon. She walked the Marathon in 7 hours and 9 minutes! This really proves that if you train properly and try hard, you can accomplish just about anything.
