Testimonials

Ku‘u led the charge in positioning us as a learning organization. She was influential in bringing new concepts such as Design Thinking that helped the organization to scale impact and better serve our mission. She is highly efficacious in her thinking, strategizing, and implementation skills. She is an old soul who can positively relate to people of all generations. She is respectful yet not afraid to challenge obsolete organizational practices. She walks the talk and people respond positively to her forthrightness and grace.
— Melinda Lloyd, Manager of Research & Evaluation at Lili'uokalani Trust
I saw her dedication to identifying underlying issues by listening to the stakeholders and empowering them to take ownership of the situation to make it better. She was instrumental...by making sure we stayed on task and were all on the same page. She took the time to meet with every member of the committee and ensured all of our voices were heard. She has a passion for organizational development and it definitely shows.
— Scott Miyaki, Corporate Recruiter at Bank of Hawai'i
The speed at which she hit the ground running was impressive to say the least. Her caring personality resonated with the staff, and helped create trusting relationships through which she accomplished much. She is a professional with seasoned people skills and deep knowledge of organizational development.
— Sheh Bertram, Chief Information Officer at Bank of Hawai'i
I strongly believe in the impact Kuʻulani will make over the next 20 years in Hawaiʻi. Kuʻulani is on a mission to create and foster more community minded and people-centric leaders across Hawaiʻi who have a commitment to creating access and equity for all people. She approaches this work through a
combination of volunteerism, community organizing, and consulting with a grounding in Hawaiʻis unique values that clearly defines her as both a thought leader and model for others emerging into leadership roles. She has become a role model for other Hawaiʻi women to carve out their own space and create their own paths to contribute to the greater good.
