“Great teams are at the root of business results, and great leaders can use the full power of their leadership to fuel, not frustrate, the effectiveness of their teams.”

As a highly sought-after team coach, executive coach, and master facilitator, Kimberley partners with leaders to establish a shared vision, build collaborative practices, navigate organizational tensions, and enhance team trust that enables teams to reach higher levels of performance and results.

Beginning her career as an IT professional in the Finance industry, Kimberley held various roles – initially as a developer progressing to senior leader of Agile delivery teams – that underscored the importance of effective team interactions and savvy leadership. On the fast track to greater responsibilities, Kimberley was selected to participate in a nine-month leadership coaching program for Women Leaders in Tech and the power of coaching ignited her own passion to help leaders grow. She emerged with a desire to make “great people”—not “great code”—her ultimate deliverable.

Since then, Kimberley has focused her career on talent development, developing team effectiveness, developing and executing strategy, and maximizing talent potential across industries, including Tech, Finance, Pharmaceuticals, Healthcare, Publishing, and non-profit organizations. She strongly focuses on producing sustained results by using refreshing candor and creative approaches grounded in measurable business results to help spark insight and transformation.

Kimberley’s coaching clients say they appreciate the way she creates a space for them to reflect, explore, and go deep so that their insights can emerge through her quiet reflection, probing questions, and direct communication.  Clients that experience Kimberley’s facilitation often say she brings a high level of energy and passion that engages participants and that her structured approach and focus on achieving practical outcomes helps them walk away with their needs met.
