“Dr Kasthuri Henry is someone who is truly indescribable when it comes to service. I have been working with her as my Business Coach for the past two months or so and my life has totally transformed. There is still much work left for me to correct, but the way she causes me to explore my divine gifts and use them is beyond measure. It is truly a blessing to have her in my life and help me blossom into capabilities that I had previously dimmed. All I know for “certain” is I am definitely living my best life now and headed for greatness as a result of this divine connection. I would recommend anyone to work with her because of her versatility, adaptability, knowledge, skill set, connections and just the genuine love and passion for her work towards her clients. I am better empowered having been in her presence. I humbly submit this recommendation on the behalf of this Great Lady!”

“Dr. Kasthuri Henry is one of the most influential women I have met and worked with in the business world. Her sense of ethics is impeccable, and she always has a message of inspiration and innovation. I describe her as “a sword made of tempered steel, sheathed in velvet…” She is calm, intelligent, insightful, and yet wraps it all up in a great sense of humor! Her personal story of having grown up in Sri Lanka in the middle of the civil war is remarkable. She has a weekly broadcast on Saturday mornings (7:00 a.m. Pacific – worth getting up for!) that is always loaded with inspiration and is a great way to start the weekend.”

As a woman of color in a leadership position, Dr. Henry understood my concerns and listened attentively. Her approach to working with individuals was not a “one-size fits all” approach. She meets you where you are at and guides you to where you want to go. She coaches through storytelling and sharing her lived experiences to help you draw your own conclusions. I am a better leader because of her stories and listening ears. Thank you, Dr. Henry!”

I had the pleasure of working with Kas when she was assigned responsibility for developing, managing and presenting the strategy around one of CEC’s biggest risks – Admissions Effectiveness. Kas led a cross-functional team to create the company’s first Standard Operating Plan for the University Group. This was a massive undertaking and the resulting finished product addressed all risks and provided the underlying document for managing the admissions process across the division. Kas is a motivated, dedicated, intelligent senior leader that would be an asset for any company.
