“Kelly Ramon is the best in the business. Period. Stop. The growth that I achieved as an executive and leader under Kelly’s tutelage was exponential. If you or your team is in need of improvement (and we always are!), Kelly would absolutely be my first call.”

“Quickly, perceptively, and artfully, Kelly provided me with the coaching I needed to thrive in my position and prepare for the next one.”

“Kelly was more than I could have asked for in a coach. Her direct, constructive insights and feedback truly helped me evolve into a stronger executive, so much so that my leadership team has noticed and is supportive of my next level promotion recommendation.”

“John and I worked together in several businesses experiencing disruption and ultimately a transformation that required strong senior leadership to guide the way. Over the ten years I was working alongside him, he personally helped both me and the leaders on my teams navigate these challenges to find a way, establish a set of values and principles to do things in the right way, and grow as leaders.”

"Kelly challenged us to be better leaders and a better team in our executive offsite. She left everyone feeling motivated with actionable items for how we can tackle the challenges and goals… She did a fantastic job of guiding difficult conversations, contributing insightful solutions, and holding everyone accountable for areas that require improvement. She displays a tremendous balance of compassion, sincerity, and candor that allowed our team to take in helpful feedback and find ways to work together better as a unit. We look forward to working with Kelly again in the future!"

"Working with Kelly was great. It’s important to be open and honest about areas for improvement to gain the most benefit. I especially found it helpful to learn in most instances my struggles were not uncommon and there could be a path to overcome and build confidence as a leader."

“She helped me become a better leader and co-worker. She worked with me to identify not only the things that were holding me back, but as importantly, the areas in which I excel, enabling me to become more confident and self-assured, manage my time better and be kinder to myself and those around me.”

"Kelly got me to look at my strengths and weaknesses objectively. More importantly, she spent a lot of time with me identifying tools to improve both. The experience taught me to look at leadership differently and that it is essential to constantly be challenging myself as an executive."

“John’s rare ability is listening with intention. His way of active listening to seek clarity gives him a deep understanding of what you are struggling with and learns how you feel about it. This gives him the insights to help you figure out what you need to do - but maybe more important - in a way you’ll understand and will best be able to execute because it will make sense to you. I worked with John for six years; he was a constant ally and led me through some transformational ways of handling myself and making me a far better coach and leader.”

"Kelly has allowed me to adjust my mindset in a way that allows me to be more empathetic to my audience, peer, subordinate, superior, friend and even family member. In the most positive way I hear her voice in certain situations that causes me to take a pause before reacting, and has made me a more effective communicator for sure."

"Kelly did a phenomenal job working with an executive on my team. I am a big believer in the executive coaching process and very grateful for it. The executive took a massive step forward in leadership, management and communication skills. The executive is owning their role and I expect big things. A big thanks to Kelly who not only produces results but is pure joy to work with."

“Kelly challenged me to think differently and to understand my blind spots and my leadership styles in calm and under pressure. She provided insights and practical tools in my areas of weakness. Most of all, Kelly cared about me as a whole person and enabled me to be open and vulnerable, which was key for me to make the breakthroughs required to be a next-level leader. I received feedback that my business results achieved far more than expected in the first year in the role. There is no doubt in my mind that there is tremendous value in coaching engagements, and further, Kelly Ramon is simply the best - professional, energetic, no-nonsense!”

"I'd been hearing of the legend of Kelly Ramon for years from various co-workers. When I had the chance to experience the Kelly experience first-hand, she even exceeded my hopes and expectations. I look forward to working with her for the rest of my career."

"Kelly is brilliant at what she does and extremely insightful, wise and adept at sorting through complex dynamics to get to the heart of the matter. She’s an amazing combination of tenacity and compassion…forcing you to face your blind spots and deal with the hard truths. It is all done tactfully and with genuine care for your feelings and genuine investment in your growth and development. The work we did has improved my work life, and my life in general, immeasurably. I whole-heartedly recommend Kelly to anyone who is lucky enough to get to work with her."

"While knowing there are always areas of improvement, I went into the process unsure if the timing was right. From assessment to working sessions, Kelly provided immediate insight into the developmental areas that would make me more impactful as a leaders. Not only did she help me stick to my plan, she involved my team in the process - working together and getting better together. I walk away with her as a constant reminder of the things that make uncomfortable and as an inspiration to approach them head on and with a new level of seriousness."

"As a leader I felt deflated after going through an organizational restructure. With Kelly's support, guidance and wisdom I am back on track and have returned to approaching my work with more passion and drive than ever!"

“My time working with Kelly was a life altering experience. She improved my confidence, my executive presence, and my ability to lead in times of conflict. I’ve developed deeper relationships with my direct reports, my team and leadership across the organization as a result of her training.”

"I had the sincere pleasure of working with Kelly and the lessons I took from our time together are still helpful every day. Kelly was able to hold up a mirror that helped me see clearly my strengths and weaknesses and challenged assumptions and perceptions that were standing in the way of my growth. This clarity helped me tremendously as I transitioned into a new role. My time with her brought a renewed energy, focus, and joy to my work."

"Kelly is an honest sounding board, dedicated to your growth and development. She helps you identify what kind of leader you want to be, and assist you in creating a plan to achieve your leadership goals. Kelly is thoughtful, thorough, and professional, providing helpful feedback and support."

Kelly Ramon has been an integral part in helping me to consistently become a better executive. Over the past year, she has helped me to hone in on my strengths, recognize my development opportunities, and more effectively use my voice to make an impact in my organization. Kelly is more than a coach, she's a mind stimulator, a motivator, a counselor, and perhaps most important, she’s a valuable and trusted accountability partner. I’ll be forever thankful to Kelly for the positive influence she has had on my professional and personal life.

I have known John Ramons’ reputation within Emerson for a number of years and had the pleasure of working with him for the past couple of years. John clearly stands out as one of the best organizational and personal development leaders I have worked with in my 31 years at Emerson. His hard work, dedication, focus, and more importantly, his clear understanding of the business and individuals needs allows him to make outsized contributions to everything he touches.
