Manna Ko began her career as an entrepreneur in the 1980s in Canada, and within a short time, her work became nationally recognized. In the late 1990s, she and her son moved to the United States, where she used her giftings and expertise to help others in the marketplace providing progressive marketing concepts, effective organizational systems, integrative team building curricula, personal and professional leadership consulting, and strategic partnerships to businesses around the country. In the early 2000s, Manna went back to school and earned an MA in Psychology, a PhD in Philosophy, graduate certificates in many other health and wellness disciplines, and in 2022, she completed her EdD in Leadership for Change with her pioneering research on child sex trafficking in the United States.

Manna is called to teach, stretch, and equip others to live-out their gifts in a world hungry for authentic, honorable, and meaningful leadership and relationships. Now with over thirty-five years of entrepreneurial experience, she has spoken to over 40,000 people in venues around the globe, shared the stage with other recognized leaders, worked with hundreds of different businesses and organizations, guided even more individuals seeking personal excellence, has taught at numerous events, including a private writer’s group at Oxford University, England, and is affectionately known as Your Purpose Professor™.
