“I’ve engaged Kimberly as a coach to help me define a new business effort. I’ve invited her to lead workshops for the Software Development Best Practices special interest group I co-chair. When she put on a half-day workshop on “Practical Leadership and Management Practices that Improve Business Results”, I made sure not to miss it – and I wasn’t wrong – new nuggets of management wisdom crystallized for me during the span of just a few hours. Kimberly is almost scary energetic. But her energy is always directed to helping her clients, her students and her protégées “get it”. I count myself among all three, and I count myself lucky to be so.” - Ron Lichty, Associate Director, Publisher Services, HighWire, Stanford University
