TESTIMONIALS
What They’re Saying
Kelly has proven her ability to successfully manage in a fast paced, demanding environment with competing priorities. Kelly is viewed as the "expert" in recruitment throughout the District. Not limiting herself to recruitment, Kelly has gained substantial knowledge and proficiency in all campus operations. In the process, she has gained the respect and confidence of her fellow Directors. Kelly's poise and leadership is remarkable. She has only begun to tap into her tremendous potential as a manager.
Dana Martin, Supervisor
I worked for Kelly for approximately 8 years. I must say that working with and for Kelly was one of the greatest professional experiences I've had! She was available to me if I needed her, but she trusted me enough to give me the freedom to find out what worked best out in the field that would benefit the recruitment team. Kelly is an asset to her campus and the world of post-secondary education.
Darryl Kincy, Subordinate
Kelly understands people and organizations in a way that makes her extremely capable. Her ability to manage well is a combination of her drive for results, her attention to setting and exceeding goals, and her clear communication of the vision to meet those goals to inspire the people she is working with and for. She does all of this while never losing sight of the individual. Whether that individual is someone she manages or a client, Kelly makes people feel good about themselves while motivating them to take action toward results. I would recommend Kelly to lead any team of professionals.
