“Identifying the right talent is more important than identifying the best talent. Why? The best fit is what produces the best team.”
Kim has a passion for Formula 1 Racing – one reason she considers teamwork to be the ultimate measure of success.
Her own professional experience tells her that effective teamwork is the ultimate measure of success. “I have had – and continue to have – the privilege of doing deep, purposeful work with people and their professional ‘teams.’ During two decades of leading a fourth-generation international business I learned, firsthand, how vital the dependencies are between functions – sales, financing, merchandising, supply chain, logistics, and much more. It is essential to assemble the right mix of people capable of operating as a cohesive team.” She brings a unique understanding of the critical need to not just optimize but operationalize the leadership team to deliver results and maximize value for a business and its investors.
Kim’s work for Ampersand clients includes executive assessment, organizational change management, and team optimization. Her approach is differentiated by her laser-like focus on asking the tough questions that discover the root cause of any human capital challenge.
