Kathryn is a highly professional trainer, coach, advocate and consultant. A joy to work with.

David Wild,
CEO,
Community
Kathryn is an authentic, compassionate, motivated leader who never stops. I have been blessed with the opportunity to work with Kathryn and the Wellbeing Australia steering committee for the First Responders Wellbeing Summit. Instrumental in pulling likeminded people together; planning, coordinating, and hosting really sets a high standard. Immediately you feel like you have known her all your life and effective collaboration amongst many people and organisations comes so naturally.

I have had the pleasure of working with Kathryn in a professional coaching capacity. Kathryn is a pragmatic and empathetic coach and I’ve always felt her advice was both insightful and constructive. She has provided me with perspective and expertise that has helped inform some key directional decisions I’ve taken. I have often reached out to Kathryn for her opinion informally over the years and she’s always been a great source of information and inspiration for me. Highly recommend!

Alyssa Kent,
Senior Executive,
Healthcare Sector
Kathryn comes with my highest recommendation for enthusiasm, knowledge, tenacity, emotional intelligence and warmth. Her ability to make connections is phenomenal as is her integrity.

Ian Luscombe,
Senior Executive,
Education and Youth Sector
Kathryn is a highly motivated consultant who delivers her keynotes and workshops with energy and enthusiasm. Her talent for assisting individuals to identify their strengths is key to her success in team-building and refining strategic direction. She is an inspiring and motivating facilitator.

Linda McNeil,
Senior Executive,
Education Sector
We worked with front line first responders, Commissioners and wellbeing experts and Kathryn could bring everyone together on equal footing. I know Kathryn works on numerous projects with a loving supportive family behind her which keeps her focused. I admire people like Kathryn who achieve so much by supporting others, happy to lead in the shadow of project but just as comfortable at the front. In my role I have been fortunate to meet a lot of inspiring people and I can honestly say Kathryn Taylor is one of those people at the top of my list.

Paul Lloyd,
Senior Executive,
First Response Sector
Kathryn is a rare find in that she combines an infectious positive attitude with an incredible depth of expertise and knowledge. She is extremely well read and almost always brings a new way of looking at issues that helps clarify the goal. On top of all this she is an individual of great integrity and authenticity. I highly recommend Kathryn as consultant who will add value to the organisation.

Rob Dickerson,
Senior Executive,
Healthcare Sector
I've heard it said that behind every expressed frustration is an unexpressed hope. What our training in strengths has provided for our staff and students is a common language by which we can engage in those critical conversations, both respectfully and constructively. Whether it be our leaders openly discussing how we effectively work together in our staff teams, building staff PD plans or addressing how to respond to a challenging student in the classroom. As we've come to know our strengths we're affirmed in the contribution we make and learn to appreciate the contribution of others.
