Kimberly provided fresh insights and guidance. I was impressed with her patience and willingness to listen to concerns and reservations on the dynamics of the team. She asked about our company culture to help better understand how the cultural environment impacts employees (both positively and negatively). She also encouraged us to understand any biases we may possess where our perceptions, rather than facts, shape our daily decisions and can affect our work and our team’s success.
