  • “At the time I hired Katherine, there was a significant chance my business would fold due to intense co-founder conflict. Katherine was not only able to diffuse the conflict, but also created stronger, deeper relationships between my co-founders and me. Our work has made me a more effective, empathetic, and balanced leader. As a result, my company has grown from an idea to a multi-million dollar business in 3 years.”
