| "Kate has great clarity about identifying the current issues facing an organization, assessing the forces that are impacting the outcome, and designing a customized intervention based on extensive research of the applicable principles. One of the most powerful impacts of Kate’s approach is that she models the principles she is teaching or mentoring. This reinforces the concepts in her interventions and builds her credibility with all those she works with. Kate’s positive energy is contagious. I have recommended Kate without reservation for a variety of situations, because she is exceptionally adaptable and always expanding her own knowledge. Kate’s biggest impact on me personally has been a better understanding of right timing. Understanding the timing of others is critical to success. Kate has excellent insight into others personal style (strengths and weaknesses) that enhance the effectiveness of her interventions." |

| "It is rare in a corporate setting to engage in work that addresses the larger issues of the human family while relating directly to a work community. In a very wise, powerful and non-threatening way, Kate challenges her audience to discover how to become the best of who they are so that they may focus their unique gifts on the workplace and add greater value. The gift of Kate's work, though, is in providing life skills, that, yes, influence the bottom line, but more importantly, open the door to a more authentically powerful way of being in this world." |

| "Kate brings a positive spirit into the workplace. People who work with her are drawn to her enthusiasm, passion for her work and sincere commitment to creating and sustaining effective change in the workplace. I have always been impressed by how Kate carefully balances her curricula between personal transformation and work-related change management. Kate has a unique ability to facilitate meaningful change in people and organizations. Her teaching style encourages her course participants to look introspectively and then apply their personal realizations into effective changes in their workplaces. I find that I always learn in Kate's presence, whether we are designing a course, planning organization development work or implementing a customized project." |

| "Kate is a trainer who truly 'walks the walk,' not just presenting material, but living the principles and training by example. She is grounded, honest, open, caring, talented, intelligent, flexible and mature. She is a great role model for the material she trains, in her way of being and her mode of behavior. In training the Four-Fold Way, as an example, I have seen Kate enact the guidelines, providing a living and effective example of the principles, applicable for us trainees both personally and professionally, in all of our interpersonal relationships. An excellent example of this was during a tailored team-building session that was derailed halfway through by the participants. Kate was open to and perceptive about the changes necessary to effectively get the session back on track, and spontaneously and creatively implemented them with ease." |

| "Kate is refreshingly genuine and non-conventional. Her approach is non-threatening and nurturing. Kate believes in having fun and her enthusiasm is infectious, to say the least! I have personally grown 'into myself' - more self-aware, self-assured and confident in who I am and what I offer and my work with Kate has been a major catalyst in that evolution. All of this has translated into greatly enhanced personal and professional relationships and communication. Lastly, I struggled for several years to articulate a personal vision. After working with Kate, I wrote my vision in 20 minutes! Now I can finally focus my energy and attention where my vision and passion is." |

"I had the wonderful opportunity of working with Kate for over a year at Valley Media. As soon as I met her, I knew that she would be someone who would have a positive impact on me and on our company. Kate has an easy, approachable manner that makes people feel comfortable and safe opening up to her. She is a warm and caring person, generous of spirit. Because of this warmth, she lent an air of humanness to the corporate structure. Kate is a wonderful observer. She is able to use her observations to help others on their journey. There were many times that I would go to Kate to ask her advice on things that were happening at work. I always found that after talking with Kate, I had received valuable knowledge that I could always apply to both the workplace and myself. Kate has provided insights and support that gave me the confidence I needed to move my career forward. She was inspirational and supportive. It is with wholehearted pleasure that I recommend Kate Powers. She has deep, insightful knowledge about people and how they interact in the workplace. I know many people who feel that knowing Kate has helped them to know themselves better." |

After participating in Kate's program I found myself listening in a new way that helped me better understand the needs of my employees and customers. But most importantly, Kate provides a framework within which a company can better see and discuss issues, and make effective and lasting changes." | ||
