Testimonials

I wanted to let you know that what I imbibed from you during the course has been of IMMENSE help to me and that I’ve put it all to good use. I started my own company and have been running it successfully for the last one year or so, introducing a totally new service concept to the challenging markets in India. (http://www.autovega.in ) Thanks a lot for your contagious enthusiasm!
Ashish Joshi, Co-founder and CEO, JK AutoVega Mobile Car Services Private Limited
Kimberly is a whole energy level unto herself. I call it the “Kimberly Factor”. Her passion to give, teach and mentor excels people, programs and companies.
Bonnie Savage, CEO Assistant, JDSU
Kimberly took me to the next level in taking on a leadership role. She encouraged me to success.
Sherry Parsons, Executive Administrative Manager, Earthbound Farm
This book unabashedly puts forward a new, unambiguous, non-shrinking, and ultimately empowering view of what we all as project managers should commit to be and do every day in our project roles.
Cinda Voegtli CEO, Emprend, Inc. President of ProjectConnections.com
All the advice you gave me during our last meeting is paying off. Who could believe having a white board would do wonders – – just as you said. . . . this afternoon my manager said “You’re so organized and such a good communicator.
Patty Boone, Hewlett-Packard Co.
Thanks for your timely advice this week! You have the right templates and tools that you can send at a moment’s notice, even at midnight! You truly care about the long term success of our company. And last, but not least, I can count on you to understand my half-finished thoughts because you are smart, flexible, and have a big heart!
Ernest Mak, Houzz

Ross McClure, Manufacturing Manager, SuperPower, Inc., a Furukawa Company
Kimberly once again thank you. Almost 1year ago you offered to do a Skype call with me when I was so disappointed. You gave me so much power and a different view. Since then I stood up and started to take new challenges!! It was really a turning point for my career, life.
A.M., Tokyo, Japan, Japanese Polymer Company
I cannot tell you how grateful I am to have an experienced professional like you at my side to launch the Consulting Special Interest Group tomorrow. The agenda looks great and I am convinced that we are well prepared for a productive and successful meeting tomorrow.
Patricia B., Emerald Hills Strategy Consultants
I plan to recommend attending Kimberly’s presentation to everyone I know as one of the best project management presentations I have ever attended. It gives project managers the kick in the butt call-to-action they need.
