My Heartfelt Thanks to my Clients
Peter Blau: CEO of IT Data:
While working through a challenging issue, Jacalyn was able to provide guidance and support that ultimately lead to a successful outcome. Her style,
structure, and experience was a great asset in navigating a complex situation. Perhaps her greatest gift however is her ability to understand the personal dynamics and bring out the best in an individual by encouragement and motivation.
Mariska Du Preez:
Working with Jacalyn is insightful and a fun experience. During our coaching sessions she helped me to develop an action plan to move towards my envisioned future, and I really felt supported during the process. Her strengths of hope and gratitude really shined through for me every time we interacted. This encouragement from her helped me to dig deeper and stretch myself even more, to gain more insights and really create the future I want. If you enjoy working with someone that has a passion for what they do, and approach everything with excitement and energy, Jacalyn is the person to work with.
John Rinker:
I worked with Jacalyn in a client-supplier relationship, turned friendship, for a number of years and can say she brings a level of passion and energy to her engagements like nothing I’ve experienced before. Her focus and commitment on the client’s success shine through in every conversation and recommendation. She is not afraid of asking the hard questions and doesn’t back down from a challenge which was what we needed to grow our programs. Over the years I’ve seen Jacalyn face obstacles head-on and thrive all while supporting those counting on her.

Tony Lepre:
As a friend and business professional, I am delighted to write this recommendation for Dr. Jacalyn Kerbeck. She is always conscientious of her surroundings and focused on how she can be helpful with her extensive skill set. From basic to advanced listening skills, offering sound advice and coaching methods. I had the privilege of being a guest on Rapping with Dr. Jacalyn, again very professional and on point listening, follow up questions and conversational skills. To me, this clearly shows not only her aptitude in this ever-evolving space but she truly cares. This to me is a key separator, not something that can be easily taught or learned. Five out of Five stars for Dr. Jacalyn!
