Lasting Increases of Self Awareness

Kathy did not ask for this recommendation, but it’s been 2 years since she facilitated a training for our organization and I still think about the efficacy of the entire event on a regular basis. Kathy is throughly knowledgable about strengths, but also how to organize, run, and lead an event. Colleagues of mine who went through her training still reference their strengths finder & this training to me also. In a short event for the team, there were noticeable & lasting increases of self awareness across the team. I would strongly recommend Kathy.

You Wooed Me

Thank you very much! Your class was one of the best classes I’ve attended in 30 years! I would like to keep in touch to possibly hire you to teach a class for my team. You Wooed Me and my classmates! Get it?

Impressive Energy, Dialogue & Engagement

I recently worked with a team that Kathy was part of for our organization at @Accion Texas (now LiftFund) and she impressed all our team members. Her energy, dialogue, and engagement was impressive from start (project) to finish (seminars). I’d recommend her to any firm that is seeking a solid foundation on strengths training and relationship building amongst team. Thanks Kathy! Your work will be with us for a lasting time.

Spot On Insights

This is our second year working with Kathy to help our small team learn to collaborate better. We had such a good experience the first year, she was our first call when we were booking our annual retreat.  Her insights were spot on and she was a big help facilitating our conversation.  Thanks Kathy!

Improves How We Work

Every time Kathy Kersten does team development at Whataburger, we all learn so much about each other. It builds empathy and increases trust in a way that truly improves how we work together. If you are looking for a great CliftonStrengths coach, I highly recommend Kathy. Not one minute is wasted—she is an absolute delight and the team leaves with a very actionable roadmap!

Knowledgeable & Empathetic Coach

Kathy has consulted as a Leadership Coach at Meta (Facebook) for several years, and I had the good fortune of benefitting from her coaching. When I joined Meta’s Infra Silicon ASIC team, I realized that Meta’s unique work culture was very different from that of a typical semiconductor company (which defined all of my past experience before joining Meta). Kathy helped me adapt to this new environment through the use of several techniques on how to be successful as an engineering manager at Meta. She also helped me understand my “CliftonStrengths” report and how best to capitalize on my unique combination of strengths in my day-to-day work. I am happy to recommend Kathy as a knowledgeable and empathetic coach that can help you become a more effective leader.

Must-Have Training

I had the good fortune to have Kathy Kersten come to Comcast to deliver a pilot strengths finder training program for our Marketing and HR members. I knew Kathy to be a creative, fun and professional expert at Rackspace and jumped at the chance to introduce Gallup Strengths Finder to key executives at Comcast. She did not disappoint. This is must have training for any organization and the team continues to reference these strengths in meetings and discussions.
I would highly recommend Kathy for any organization that is looking to increase teamwork, work on strengths and improve their results!

Such A Hit!

We recently had the pleasure of welcoming Kathy to our bi-annual company all hands meeting in Austin, Texas to help our team understand their own personal strengths and how to best work together so that we can achieve our company goals more effectively. Feedback from our team has been overwhelmingly positive. Kathy is humorous in her delivery; she customized her workshop for our business needs, and the workshop was such a hit that everyone wanted to get their own personal assessment after the workshop was completed. I highly recommend any growing business to bring in Kathy to help maximize your team’s working quotient.
