"As part of our ongoing efforts to train and develop our staff we hired Kris Taylor to help us with two key projects. One project involved the assessment of the skills level of our factory process leaders. The other project involved helping our senior management staff develop more effective communication, both among ourselves and with those we lead.
Kris brought a wealth of personal knowledge and experience to bear on our projects. She used select outside resource specialists to augment her personal expertise. Using various assessment tools for the process leaders, she developed individualized training processes for each leader. The results have exceeded our high expectations as each process leader is performing effectively at a much higher skills level.
Her coaching and evaluation of our senior staff has greatly enhanced its communication and effectiveness. Based on these results, we are working with Kris on the design of other training and development projects involving our entire Human Resource process.
I strongly recommend Kris Taylor and Associates to any firm in need of leadership assessment and training, change management and/or executive coaching."

"Kris has consistently been flexible to our changing needs and time frames..and offers creative suggestions when we seem to be at a place that could potentially turn into a roadblock. She manages to keep things moving along to meet our deadlines, react to our requests, and provide support and results customized to our needs. It really feels like a partnership, and that our company is her Number 1 priority."

“We have had the pleasure and benefit of working with Kris on two significant projects. One helped us turn a broken work area into a much higher-functioning team over the course of 9 months or so. The other resulted in a unified, vision-driven approach to supporting our employees in managing the change we are currently, and will always, experience.
Kris is on target, and works exceptionally well with all levels of the organization to get us where we need to go. We will continue to call upon this flexible, professional, knowledgeable resource.”

"The value of Kris is not just her expertise, it is her seasoned seniority. Her level of experience and professional maturity enables her to truly understand client needs and build the right learning approach for them. She meets tight deadlines without becoming rattled, and brings a sense of order and calm to more junior team members. She meets problems head on and creates creative solutions. She becomes the 'trusted advisor' to clients who turn to her not just for her specific knowledge area, but also to mentor less experienced people on their staff. Kris is much more than the story her resume tells."
