CUTV News Radio spotlights Kerrie Halmi of Halmi Performance Consulting

Oakland, CA – Halmi is the founder of Halmi Performance Consulting, where she specializes in executive coaching, leadership development and team development with an emphasis and expertise in women's leadership specifically.

“Coaching women's leadership is all about looking at what your goals are, what you want to do, what you're good at, and bringing more of that to your job,” says Halmi. “It’s about having the confidence to own your leadership.”

Halmi launched Halmi Performance Consulting in 2001 based on her background in human resources and her passion for helping people become better leaders.

Research that says confidence matters more than competence in terms of success. Halmi says the clients she works best with are high-potential woman, already in leadership positions, whose companies want them to continue to succeed.

“What I see so often, even among women who have ‘made it,’ is a lack of confidence,” says Halmi. “Getting women to speak up and be heard is a huge part of our work.”

To address this issue, Halmi has developed her six-month program the Platinum Exchange to look at what has been stopping them.

“I've been encouraged because now women just say from the beginning, ‘I lack confidence and I know I'm going to do a better job when I have the confidence,’ says Halmi. “The reason I keep doing these programs is we see such a difference with the women when they start with us and when they end with us. They’re shining.”
