    • Karen is passionate about helping individuals and teams succeed…she derives extreme pleasure from strategically charting courses to leave organizations better than she found them.

      Consulting Magazine
    • Karen makes extremely good use of her gift for facilitation…keeping her facilitator hat on enables her to take in new information and not put it through her personal lens, but think about who was sharing the information, why, how it impacts the exchange.... It's a way that she keeps the exchange focused on you or the problem you are working together to solve.
