Guest Interview with Kimberly Wiefling discussing Impossible to Inevitable: The Evolution of Scrappy Gal Pals.


Kimberly is someone I wished I knew at the beginning of my career because it would have made me a better person sooner!

She says, “I’m a Trusted Advisor, Valued Partner, and Respected Colleague – I shock companies into fixing the things that will Damage or Destroy their organizations.”

Kimberly Wiefling has extensive experience in the R&D and manufacturing of complex systems of hardware, software, firmware, chemistry, and physics. She’s held leadership positions ranging from NPI Program Manager to VP of Program Management & Organizational Effectiveness for a Xerox Parc spinoff and has helped companies from startups to Global 1000 successfully grow and – more importantly – SCALE.

Kimberly enables leaders to avoid or fix the most common causes of failure in global teams, problems that damage or destroy companies, along with $Bs in shareholder value. A physicist by education, she has found that many of these are “human” problems that don’t require “rocket science”. All that’s required to achieve a significant positive impact in many cases is to make common sense into common PRACTICE.

DEEP EXPERIENCE in GLOBAL COMPANIES. Kimberly has worked in the US, Europe & Asia, primarily with culturally diverse groups of employees in globalizing Japanese companies. Her superpower is bringing people with diverse backgrounds, cultures & styles together, connecting them across borders, boundaries & barriers of every kind, to achieve what seems impossible, but is merely difficult, and which none could achieve alone.

2. IMPROVED MANUFACTURABILITY & AFR
3. OPTIMIZED NPI PIPELINE

SPECIALIZING in CROSS-FUNCTIONAL AND CROSS-CULTURAL TEAMS. Kimberly has worked globally with people from over 50 different countries, in every corporate function. Her clients include many well-known global brands in a broad range of industries.

FROM STARTUPS to GLOBAL 1000. Kimberly’s a serial entrepreneur, the founder of Wiefling Consulting, and co-founder of Silicon Valley Alliances. She’s been involved in launching ~ a dozen startups and was the VP of Program Management & Organizational Effectiveness for one that was acquired by Google in 2001. She invested in and coached the founder of EmbeddedWorks, which bootstrapped to 7-figure annual revenues.

MAKING a POSITIVE DIFFERENCE: Kimberly is passionate about making a meaningful positive difference by working with organizations committed to solving the problems of Our World – profitably, so this good work continues!
