MARK GAGNON

SENIOR VP - RETAIL SALES

During my thirty plus years in business, I have worked for several multinational companies including Dole, DelMonte, Chiquita, and Chobani.

I had the pleasure of working closely with Keri Laine to collaborate and build a first-class team, literally from the ground up.

Keri has a keen sense for identifying what drives company growth and sustainability by establishing a sound foundation for our organization to move business forward. From a strategic perspective, Keri is a very perceptive individual who is able to assess complex situations and deliver a rationale and positive outcome. In an emerging, new business, there were no historical data points or ground rules to follow. But yet Keri had the ability to move swiftly, adapt, conform and create a culture that was productive for the entire organization. And ultimately, Keri’s influence allowed every department to develop its own identity and shine as an independent entity and strategic partner/group within the company. Finally, and most importantly, Keri is a genuine individual who truly cares. She caters to all segments, personalities, levels, etc. with a sincere compassion. I believe Keri and I share the same opinion, that quality people make things happen in any successful business. Keri embraced the “people” aspect, which is what will make her and her clients successful in the future. I have been fortunate to work closely with many talented people, but without any question or debate, Keri Laine is at the top of the list for my career with several dynamic multinational companies.

JOHNAS MAURICE

VP OPERATIONS

I had the privilege of working with Keri and experienced her exceptional leadership development coaching first hand during my tenure as Regional Director of Operations at Kalera, and the impact was and has been truly transformative.

The development initiatives, including both structured programs (idp’s) and personalized 1:1 coaching, played a pivotal role in shaping my leadership style. Through Keri’s insightful guidance, I honed my decision-making skills, fostering a more strategic and confident approach. My overall professional growth, as a result, has been remarkable.

The coaching sessions not only met but exceeded my highest expectations. They were tailored to my specific needs, addressing both my strengths and areas for improvement. Keri’s expertise and ability to provide constructive feedback were instrumental in my progress.

Without a doubt, I wholeheartedly recommend KLES to other professionals.

BRANDON JOHNSON,

MA, SHRM-CP

PRINCIPAL,

HUMAN RESOURCES

I've had the pleasure of working with Keri whose various skills have impacted my career in many ways, but most notably I'd like to comment on her coaching expertise. Being a leader in the field of HR myself, we often times can be some of the trickiest people to coach. Like a doctor who goes in for an annual medical check up, we sometimes make the worst patients. Keri, however, found an effective way to connect with me that was smooth and easy. She didn't barge in as the smartest person in the room. Instead, her method was more collaborative, non-intrusive, and eye-opening. She provided me with scalable tweaks that not only helped me to be more effective with my subordinates, but my counterparts and executive superiors alike.

I find myself continuously using her insights not only professionally, but also in my personal life as there were quite a few transferable lessons. I definitely recommend Keri Laine Executive Solutions. Keri beyond exceeded my expectations and could do the same for others.
