Kim puts the human in human resources.

Having worked closely together during my tenure as Chief Revenue Officer at League Inc., I had the opportunity to experience Kim’s “people-first approach” to talent and culture. During her tenure as Chief People Officer, League saw record levels of employee engagement through a period of hyper growth and unpredictable market conditions. Kim’s unique combination of HR expertise, dynamic personality and innate understanding of key business objectives make her a very approachable, effective and high impact consultant for your company to leverage.

If you have the opportunity to know, learn from, or work with Kim, consider yourself one of the most fortunate ones!

I had the privilege of meeting Kim at a CHRO event when in Toronto and while her personality made me want to be her friend, it was her experience and knowledge that led me to ask her to be my mentor. Kim is wicked smart, knows HR inside and out, and most importantly, has the wisdom and judgement that only comes with the breadth of experience she has. She knows how to quickly dial in on an issue and make no-nonsense recommendations that are supportive to employees, and more crucially, make sense for the business.

As a fellow HR professional I am thrilled to be writing this recommendation for Kim. I have known Kim for many years and have always been impressed with her knowledge, skills and mostly her infectious passion for solution-based creativity. In a field where far too many are “by the book”, Kim is a rare breed who can drive employee engagement by deftly balancing high-level strategy with day-to-day operational needs.
