Bio
Caroline Homer
Kenneth is an outstanding manager due to his ability to drive sales, efficiency and shrink results through coaching and developing the people around him. He always stands behind his team and knows how to motivate and challenge on different levels. You are never bored when you are around Kenneth!
Kevin Y.
I've had the pleasure to work with Kenneth when I was still a fresh store manager in training when Kenneth took over the largest district for H&M in the U.S. Through Kenneth's patient guidance and the belief in his people, our team had grown exponentially as a result. Kenneth was able to deliver one of the best results in sales, talent development, attrition, and bottom line through his astute business acumen, diplomatic skills, and engagement. Kenneth was truly a visionary and inspirational leader that I looked up to as my supervisor. Anyone who works for him will be lucky because they will learn something everyday!
