Kimberly Braxton, ’17

I currently serve in the role of director of evaluation at Equal Measure. I was promoted January 2020 from senior consultant. I have been with Equal Measure since July 2014 when I came on as a consultant. In 2016, three years after starting the graduate program at SJU, I was promoted to senior consultant.

I learned about my current position through employment at my organization.

The master program in organization development and leadership (MODL) enabled me to develop and strengthen leadership skills, particularly related to self-awareness, coaching and mentoring, and leadership development theory and practice. The program increased my confidence and ability to manage and lead others in my workplace and to better serve our clients.

The MODL courses were typically experiential in design, prompting students to independently design and implement interventions and leadership development projects -- as well as work in teams to apply knowledge and skills linked to coursework.

The MODL program helped me to advance my career. It also connected me with a network of individuals, former classmates and faculty, from different backgrounds and industries, many with whom I have stayed in touch.
