College of Business MBA students –

Ruth Smith is an MSU College of Business alumna and a career coach for tech professionals ready to lead what’s next—whether that means landing in the C-suite or pivoting out of it.

With 30+ years in tech and leadership, Ruth has made hires, made career moves, and made sense of reinvention more than once. Now she helps others do the same.

Ruth coaches students and mid-to-senior leaders through:

✔️ Executive leadership search strategy

✔️ Career pivots & clarity

✔️ Networking with confidence

✔️ Aligning you with opportunities that resonate

✔️ Job search strategy that works

✔️ Offer negotiation with confidence

Ruth has led teams, launched two companies, and sat in executive rooms — and she knows what it takes to get there and what it takes to walk away.

Ruth also has a passion for helping college students navigate their own early careers and we are excited to welcome her back to the College of Business to share with our students.
