What it’s like to work with Kim.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Kim C. Shaw in both the corporate world and now as a client through InspiringYOU! Enterprises—and I can confidently say she continues to be a game-changer for my business. Our journey started years ago when we worked together in leadership and training roles. Even then, Kim’s commitment to excellence, strategic thinking, and people-first leadership set her apart.

I first approached Kim looking for coaching on practical exercises for crafting introductions, responses, and building relationships. It was a specific request, but as soon as I had a discovery call with her, she quickly understood that what I was asking for was not what I needed. She immediately saw beneath the surface and identified the root cause of my problems. After creating a plan that allowed me to leverage my strengths, she supported me where I needed help outside the plan, providing resources and tools to accelerate my learning. If you are looking for professional coaching and don’t know where to start, Kim is your person!

Kim recently spoke at our local SHRM chapter event, and she was outstanding. Her presentation was engaging and relatable. She skillfully wove humor into her delivery, striking just the right balance to keep the audience both informed and entertained. Kim has a natural ability to capture attention and motivate her audience, making complex topics feel accessible and relevant. I highly recommend her as a speaker for your next HR meeting. She will leave a lasting impression.

Kim Shaw provided a customized presentation and supporting materials to our organization intended to inspire team members and enable them to successfully be a SPARK in their sphere of influence. She garnered a level of interactivity in our virtual space that looked effortless but could only be achieved through the humility of an expert in the field.

Kim helped our growing team, expanding across four states, Mexico, the Philippines, and India, and fluctuating between 5 and 40+ people, gain structure, methodology, and effective communication. She focused on building a championship mindset, encouraging peers to share best practices and propose solutions rather than just being people-pleasers. As a result, for approximately five years we consistently exceeded our goals, completing more than 9,000 quality assurance evaluations across all lines of business.

I am forever grateful for Kim’s leadership and mentoring. I reported to Kim early in my career and she was instrumental to my personal and professional development. She is a consummate professional that truly brings her unique skill sets to any assignment, project, or team. Kim had a tremendous amount of responsibility in this role, one of them being managing multiple teams nationwide. She was intentional with her leadership and fostered genuine connections through our department. She possesses a high level of tact and diplomacy that makes her professional presence unmatched. Kim is a lifelong learner; as a result, her skills remain perennially relevant.

I’ve really enjoyed working with Kim. One thing that stands out is how intentional she is with people. I never leave a conversation with her feeling uninspired. I leave feeling encouraged and with a clearer sense of direction. She genuinely cares. She wants to see people grow, and she celebrates your wins right alongside you. If you’re looking for someone who will challenge you, support you, and believe in you even when you’re still figuring things out, I can’t recommend Kim enough.

Kim’s background in recruiting and training was evident in her managing an operations team. She was able to coach her staff to achieve increased individual growth as well as a collective group growth resulting in increased service and customer satisfaction. Kim proved herself to be versatile, serving in many capacities to meet the company’s needs. She is dependable and always sets new growth goals for herself.

I worked with Kim at Brighthouse and later hired her to conduct leadership training for Cherry Creek Mortgage. Kim is exceptional! Her high energy and sense of humor keep participants engaged and motivated. She is experienced, relatable and a great communicator. I offer my highest recommendation for Kim Shaw.
