"During this past year, Kathy facilitated a series of team building sessions for our executive leadership team. She created a fun, interactive and informal environment where we were challenged both individually and collectively. Kathy expertly took us through a process of self-discovery using the Myers-Briggs and DISC assessments, and then used those insights as a foundation to increase trust and communication between team members. As a result of her programs, our team enjoys a greater sense of understanding, trust, and respect for each other.
Kathy is currently working with Corporate Succession Plan participants to help them develop their leadership skills. Through working with her, they have certainly gained a better understanding of what it takes to be a leader in today’s business world."
Carol Sampson, Human Resources Manager, Northland AEG
"I respect and admire Kathy as much as anyone I have ever worked with. I learned what I know about servant leadership from her and I credit her with having the right words at the right time that made the difference - for me - between success and failure. She teaches the importance of culture in business, the mechanics of building incredibly strong teams, and the role of influence as the real measure of a leader. If you are considering working with her, she will be a game-changer."

The teleclass that she facilitated for our managers and supervisors allowed us to provide quality professional development to team members located across the country without the added burden of costly travel expenses. The teleclass was a no-nonsense approach to leadership training and Kathy presented the material in easy to absorb format. As a result of her extensive experience in Human Resources and leadership development, Kathy is able to provide participants with real life examples to illustrate her learning points and her emphasis on practical application is already paying dividends."
