Testimonials

Kimberly Wiefling of Wiefling Consultants was my last instructor in completing my two certificates in Project Management, yet by far she was the most inspiring, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable instructor of both PM series of classes, particularly in developing my negotiation skills. I’m very grateful for the opportunity to learn from such an expert first hand.
Miguel A. Silva, SCVWD
Thank you so much for the insightful, inspiring, and useful talk this morning. You have a real talent!

“I highly recommend attending Hospitality Leadership Sessions. I love that you can learn and see things through other perspectives. Not only is it a forum for learning but also for bonding and strengthening your relationships with your peers. I have gained not only mentors and accountability partners…but also friends. I look forward to attending as many as I can to ensure I am a better and well-rounded leader.”   – Homero Garcia, Manager, Environmental Services

Stanford Health Care Hospitality - 1
I was thinking about you today – remembering how we sat at your kitchen table and you had me thinking about the future – began the work of shifting me towards bigger visioning. Starting from where I want to be and working my way back. I have old habits of just trying to get through each step, getting from here to there but rarely do I start from the dream fulfilled and work my way backwards. To me it was/is revolutionary thinking. I am noticing that I am starting to dream bigger; I am starting t… Read more

C. Comaford-Lynch CEO, Mighty Ventures, author of Rules for Renegades
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
Kimberly is dynamic and focused, and an incredible professional in all her activities. She is talented, creative, articulate, and has super people skills. I give her my highest endorsement.

Kimberly Wiefling recently conducted an outstanding workshop at Stanford University, on the topic of engineering in the face of very large, complex problems, as part of a new graduate-level course I’m teaching on Engineering and Climate Change. The way Kimberly helped the students experience the frustration of an “unsolvable” problem and then helped them experience how such problems are solved was brilliant. Kimberly’s approach is so lively and fun that even while you are gratified by her terrif… Read more
