"As president and founder of Success in the City and the Chrysalis Award program, it was important to have women of integrity and experience to sponsor this life-changing program.  Kathy Bowersox has served on our Advisory team for the past two Chrysalis Award programs for very good reason; she's an expert at what she does. 

She has devoted countless hours to the growth and development of the recipients of the Chrysalis program and she has been very instrumental in re-focusing the direction of each of their companies to help them achieve new found personal and professional growth. 

Kathy's work and dedication go beyond her coaching.  Her devotion to women in our community, her friends, and her personal life reflect the passion with which she has built her career.

It has been a tremendous pleasure to have Kathy as a Key Advisor to our program."

"Before starting to work with Kathy Bowersox, I was an entrepreneur who had little experience in management, much less knowing how to become a great leader and growing a company.  What I did have was a great business idea and a good start.  I knew that if I wanted to continue to grow my business, I was going to need some help.

I found Kathy to be the most qualified person to help me achieve my goals.  Her past corporate and coaching experience, her understanding of human behavior and what motivates people to change, and her incredible communication skills have been a huge asset in helping me.  One of things that I felt stood out about Kathy was that not only could she talk the talk, but also; she certainly walks the walk.

I knew the company that I wanted to build was going to be something incredible!  Working closely with Kathy, I successfully designed our foundation, core values, and corporate culture, and have been able to implement these elements throughout all levels of my company.  Additionally, Kathy had a tremendous tool chest of some great marketing, sales, customer service, and human resources strategies that we continue to use.

Because of my lack of experience at managing employees, Kathy gave me not only some great insight, but also some valuable tools that we use every day.  Additionally, due to the difficulty of such a fast growing business, in the past year I had to make some tough decisions regarding organizational structure and deal with some difficult employee issues, including the possibility of some terminations.  Kathy's previous experience in working with companies dealing with these issues was a Godsend as I worked through these decisions and the technicalities of how to handle the logistics of this process.

I certainly believe that Kathy's coaching has made an integral contribution to the incredible growth and success of my company, and that my work with her has helped us grow from sales of $2 million to over $5 million dollars in sales in one year of operation.

I continue to work with Kathy and know that our coaching together will be instrumental in assisting me in steering my company in the direction I want it to go, and managing future growth, while implementing programs that will still allow me time for my family life as I continue to grow and develop the business. 

I would highly recommend coaching with Kathy to any business owner or executive who is struggling with managing all of the demands on their time and resources."

"Kathy, I first would like to thank you for your help in my job search. The resume you helped me prepare, as well as the knowledge I gained from your instructing was quite helpful in my job search.  Those potential employers whom I spoke with were very much impressed with my resume and my presentation.  Frankly, both my previous resume and the way I would have handled my interviews prior to your instruction would not have gotten me the job I have landed.  Thank you!

My new position is Field Service Engineer.  I will have the opportunity, as I gain experience, to move into a management position and international assignments due to the growth of this industry.

In my interview for this position, the interviewer said that before she tells me about the job, she would like to know more about my background.  I used the techniques I was taught and began to talk about my background.  As I was finishing up, she threw up her hand and said, "There goes my thunder!  Everything you are talking about is what I am looking for."

As for the salary, I did set my price at the upper level of the price range for this field and I was able to negotiate a bit higher price than they had originally offered.  The overall outcome was that I ended up with a salary that is a bit higher than my previous job.  Here again, your instruction was a big help.

As you can see, you were a blessing, thank you!"

"Kathy's training and coaching has been instrumental to my current job search.  The tools she provided helped me logically piece together my success stories, goals, etc.   I'm going into interviews prepared and feeling confident.  In addition to the wonderful resources and tools she recommended, Kathy provided a wealth of information in our phone sessions.  She helped me understand how to identify contacts, approach them, and find success.  Using the methods and techniques she gave me, I have made huge inroads into several organizations.  Kathy is understanding, patient, and extremely knowledgeable.  She is available for a quick feedback or pep talk, too.  I cannot speak highly enough of Kathy's performance.

Kathy, I'd like to personally thank you for the guidance and encouragement you provided to me last Spring during my job search.  The information you shared was incredibly helpful in my search.  More importantly, you were a terrific listener, counselor, and supporter."
