“I have been working with Kathie McBroom and the Synergy Business Group for over a year, applying the principles she is teaching us to a non-profit. The results, even in just a year, have been amazing. By focusing our strategic planning team on core initiatives, we have been able not only to formulate key initiatives but, more importantly, to execute them. Kathie has a wonderful gift of being able to facilitate discussion, tease out ideas while maintaining a laser-like focus on developing long, medium and short-term goals (in that order!) for which the team is accountable. Definitely top notch.”

"Synergy Business Group and Kathie McBroom helped our company become an execution-based, metrics-driven culture. We introduced the Engineering Your Business for Success concepts and methods to the leadership team and then once it was integrated at the Leadership Team level we expanded the concepts and methods to all areas to the company. Kathie and the Engineering Your Business for Success program has had a positive and significant influence on our company and results. Her work has given us a common language of success, a respectful accountability culture and the results we could not achieve on our own. "

"Kathie did an outstanding job facilitating strategic planning for our company. She worked with senior management to perform a unique SWOT analysis that resulted in a prioritization of strategic initiatives that our company had been unable to achieve before. She developed a process for setting, updating and tracking 3 month, one year and three year goals. She worked with us to develop our hedgehog concept and our purpose statement that has continued to guide the prioritization of our strategic initiatives. Kathie's process has lead to a much more focused company and management team. It has produced better cooperation and synchronization of the management team. It has resulted in better achievement of goals across the organization. Kathie has been instrumental in improving our company's focus and achievement."

"Kathie McBroom has been a strong business coach and confidant for me. She facilitated a strategic planning session for our leadership team that has resulted in $160K increased gross profit, reduction in our AR days and improved customer service. She continually challenges me through our monthly coaching sessions and pushes me to be a better leader and CEO."

"I have worked, collaboratively, with Kathie and two of her groups. Her energy, talent and ability to listen and understand are superior. Watching her work with different types of people from different industries, is in and of itself and education in the art of multitasking.

If you're looking for someone to work at your side but not on your payroll to help you and your organization grow. Then I wholeheartedly recommend that you talk to Kathie. She will help you produce the results you desire."

She has my solid endorsement."
