7 - Leading with People and Processes: Unleashing the Power of Human Skills with Silicon Valley Alliances' Kimberly Wiefling
Manage episode 389863667 series 3523469
Your host, Matthew Pohl, talks with the Founding Member and Global Consultant of Silicon Valley Alliances, Kimberly Wiefling. Kimberly shared the intriguing story of how the Silicon Valley Alliance came to be. This group of individuals, who initially collaborated through an agent in Tokyo, decided to continue their partnership even after their agent disappeared. This led to the formation of the Silicon Valley Alliance, a group committed to transformational change.
Kimberly humorously noted that it sounds more impressive to hire the Silicon Valley Alliances than just Kimberly Wiefling. This statement reflects the reputation of Silicon Valley Alliances as a hub of innovation and prototypes, rather than a place of failures.
Kimberly's journey into consulting and advising businesses is nothing short of inspiring. She started her own consulting business while still working at Hewlett Packard in 1995, offering career coaching services to her colleagues who were being laid off. This eventually led her to transition to full-time consulting and pivot to her current focus.
