To Whom It May Concern,
It is with pleasure that I provide this letter of recommendation for Gary Flaxman.
Under my leadership, Gary has been with the Kaiser Permanente National
Training and Change Management team for over three years. Having worked
with Firms like Deloitte and Towers for many years, I can say with confidence
that Gary is in the top 5% of the field of OD consultants.
Gary has designed and delivered organizational development and organization
effectiveness and change management solutions flawlessly; always exceeding
client expectations. His highly collaborative and tailored approach realized a 17%
increase in stakeholder commitment for adopting change and his efforts have
transformed how our National and regional leaders have come to understand and
approach Mega change initiatives.
Gary fosters a collaborative work environment and is a natural leader. Executive
sponsors have tremendous trust in him and his teammates respect him. He
treats people with respect and quickly builds rapport with all levels of the
organization, from Sr. Leaders, management, front line staff, and clients. Gary is
exceedingly conscientious and is responsible beyond what is asked of him, he
accepts accountability for not only his deliverables, but those of others when he
recognizes they are falling behind. He has excellent presentation skills and is
especially strong at developing plans for achieving goals and objectives,
channeling strategic vision into concrete plans of action. This makes Gary and
exceptional choice for your hiring and organizational needs.
Any organization that chooses Gary for a role will be thankful they did. If you
require any more information, please feel free to contact me at 510-381-8767 or
email me at david.k.coutts@kp.org.
Sincerely,
David K Coutts
Director, National Training and Change Management
