I've known Yvette for a number of years and she has proven herself to be a passionate, committed HR leader who understands the business as well as human resources with the ability to craft strategy aligned with business outcomes. During her time at KPMG, she was trusted and respected by the leaders she supported. With her creativity and dedication to client service, she would be an asset to any organization fortunate enough to work with her.

Yvette Kennedy is an HR Executive and leader that gets stuff done! I have had the privilege of working with Yvette at both small and large organizations for more than ten years and she has proven skillful at evaluating an organization’s strengths and weaknesses through quantitative analysis and qualitative evaluation with senior leadership. She then finds the means to fuel successes to the next level and adds triage to those parts of the organization that might require help. Yvette is a true business partner that is focused on the bottom line through a company’s biggest asset – their people! Her positive attitude coupled with an agile mentality has proven to be an asset in organizational development and change management as she always makes a positive impact on the projects and teams that she leads.

I have had the pleasure of working with Yvette as a colleague and strategic business partner when we were both aligned with the HR functions at KPMG. Yvette sets a standard of excellence around her and with her guidance and helps others achieve that same standard of excellence. She inspires those around her to rise to the occasion and truly perform at the highest level. Her commitment to her clients and mentoring those around her is unwaivering. Her expertise pertaining to professional services and human resources is unparallel. Yvette has served as a mentor and role model to me throughout my career and I would welcome the opportunity to work with her again in the future.

I worked with Yvette for a number of years at Deloitte and have nothing but the best things to say about her. She truly understands the environment of consulting from multiple aspects of the H.R. environment and how it differs from the typical corporation. I would have no hesitation recommending Yvette for any position.

Yvette is a talented and driven business professional. She has both deep and broad knowledge of core business processes and she excels in all aspects of communication. She is fun to work with and she elevates the performance of those working with her.

Yvette is clearly an expert in the HR field. She has great ideas, sees the big picture and is efficient and effective in her work style. She is a creative thinker, problem solver, and is assertive when she needs to be.
