Fans of Executive Coaching

Kathryn is a confident facilitator who is very knowledgeable in her field. I am delighted we have secured her as our lead facilitator and wholeheartedly recommend her for Professionelle.
- Galia - Director

I am a client of careerbalance and have been working on an Executive Coaching programme with Kathryn Jackson for approximately 2 years. Throughout all my coaching sessions, Kathryn has been an inspirational listener and someone who can be relied upon to ask those deeply probing questions to challenge my thinking and ensure I have explored all options. Kathryn has rare talent and one that Kiwi’s or their organisations (big or small) - could get enormous value from.
- Dave - CFO

Kathryn is an experienced consultant who has demonstrated her strong skills & capability in guiding individuals through difficult times as a result of company restructuring. Kathryn did such a great job in 2009 that Red Bus is utilising her services again for its significant business restructure in 2010.
- Victoria - HR Manager

Our manager learned how to focus on the issue rather than the person, with the result that performance has improved for both.
- Alyson - Learning & Development Manager
