“Kent and I have been colleagues and collaborators for over 20 years. I am deeply grateful for every opportunity to work with and learn from him. He's a whole-systems thinker who is seriously intelligent. He deals well with complexity and seeks creative solutions to problems vs. making excuses for why something can't be done. He has this rare combination of excellent technical, project management and leadership skills. He understands the business of business as well as the human side of enterprise. Kent is a superb strategist and keen observer of organizational culture, processes and performance. He is deeply committed to successful outcomes both for the companies he works with and the people who work in them. He is comfortable having C-level conversations or guiding a project team in the trenches. Kent is a straight talker; so if you don't like to hear the truth, you might feel a bit uncomfortable at first. But don't let that stop you ... you'll be much better off for listening. ”
