Julianne Jones
I recently had the pleasure of having Kathy in a Project Management Fundamentals course. I was impressed by Kathy's gentle leadership style that facilitated a consensus-driven approach to group work. Her thoughtful contributions to the class discussion, both her questions and the experiences she shared, enhanced the discussion resulting in an enriched learning experience for all. Her leadership skills and knowledge of project management make Kathy a valuable asset to any team.
