How Does WOW Work?
What Participants Are Saying About Their WOW Experience...

Herman Stevens Attorney at Law
WOW was a great course. Kathy Times is the best. One could clearly see that WOW is a cumulation of years of experience inside and outside the workplace. It has been challenging to overcome my own personal issues with technology. The one thing I can take away from WOW is to not be afraid. Everything is manageable. I also walked away with a better understanding of how networking through technology can be invaluable. I have long been a proponent of shaking hands and doing a great job and being acknowledged for it. in addition, WOW taught me to not be shy about being my own biggest cheerleader. Thank you Kathy Times.
Jocelyn C. Carter Former Regional President
Humana Healthy Horizons of Florida
"We were able to build my executive brand in Florida at a critical moment. Winning the Florida Intent to Negotiate and securing the Florida Medicaid contract was pivotal to our organization's continued success. Elevating Humana Healthy Horizons of Florida as the recognized leader in the space was essential, especially since I wasn’t originally from Florida. Your strategy helped communicate and demonstrate my commitment to this market."

Walter Jennings Former Assistant Director, University of South Florida, Diversity Initiatives
Kathy developed WOW presentations that were cohesive and tailored to meet the needs of scholars with the University of South Florida. The workshops were professional, energetic, and informative. To have this type of experience and the type of attendance that we had — month after month — was a telltale sign that the students were able to obtain a lot from WOW and stay engaged.
Kathy Times’ WOW was an excellent and amazing experience. The planning process, the implementation, the execution of the workshops, and the ending with the gifts was an amazing process from the beginning until the end.
