“Ask a colleague about Kathleen and the words that are quickly used to describe her are smart, dynamic, energetic, creative, tireless, inspirational, generous, amazing, real, talented and very funny. She is all of that and more! I frequently share stories about how Kathleen helped me from the very beginning to shape the vision for our People Report consortium, and to build it into the resource that it is today for the service sector workforce, and the food service industry. Her advice, encouragement, and unfailing belief in our work was a constant that made the difference on many occasions. As the closing keynote speaker for our workforce symposium, Kathleen introduced her book, The Best Shift of Your Life, to a raptly attentive audience who laughed, cried and took furious notes and then gave her a standing ovation!
