Engage us

We invite you to think the unthinkable, embrace and embody change, individually and organizationally, and embark on the change journey that the current world requires and the world the future demands. As Gandhi says, "Be the change you want/need to see."

We will provide you with thought leadership and a collaborative approach in the way we deliver our services and solutions. Our approach meets leaders where they are and engages them to think about disruptions they are facing, what’s working and what’s not in response to them, and to explore innovative transformational solutions to thrive in this dynamic, Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous (VUCA) world. This is difficult work, but necessary work to build capacity and a culture that can navigate successfully in the midst of complexity, disruption, and exponential change and to be future-ready. Our role, as your partner, is to partner with you to prepare you and partner with you and your stakeholders to create a strategy and execute on a plan for a better future.

We will customize the process, align the people/talent/and structure and provide a framework to adopt change and to execute and deliver on the short-and-long-term strategy and vision.

  • “Kathy Naylor was my HR business partner over the past few years. I felt that Kathy was a true partner to me, and went above and beyond her HR responsibilities to continuously help support and develop my team. Kathy’s decades of experience made her a fantastic sounding board and she always provided excellent guidance in tough situations. She was a true professional and partner the entire time I worked with her. She’d be a fantastic asset to any team.”

    — Meredith V. | Healthcare Executive

  • “Kathy and I have worked together for the past 3+ years and she is an excellent HR business partner for myself and my team. Kathy participated in a business documentation project and helped with change management. She was instrumental with assisting me with team member evaluation, helping to define career pathways, refining job descriptions and was a trusted advisor to help me realign our department to best support our global commercial team. Kathy has been wonderful to work with and I sincerely value her insights and experience as my HR business partner.”

    — Brian H. | VP of Global Commercial Ops

  • “One of Kathy's greatest strengths as a coach is the deep empathy and emotional intelligence she brings to our sessions. She has an incredible ability to truly understand what I’m experiencing and creates a safe, non-judgmental space where I can openly talk about how I'm feeling about my current situation. Because of this, I'm comfortable being vulnerable and honest with her. She doesn’t rush me to “fix” anything, instead, she helps me accept how I’m feeling, which has made my emotions feel far more manageable. At the same time, she gently lifts me up with positive reframing and helps me recognise small but meaningful wins that are building my confidence. What I also find valuable is how practical Kathy's coaching is. Every session leaves me with clear, realistic action plans that I can actually use in my daily life. The combination of emotional support and actionable guidance has helped me feel more confident, grounded, and empowered between sessions.”

    — Charlotte | Global Healthcare HR Leader

  • “I would highly recommend Kathy to anyone looking to improve their job-hunting skills and level-up their mental game. With patient, kind, and consistent training, Kathy helped me double my application-response rate and drive my candidacy down the funnel from recruiter screens to final offer. These results speak to the wealth of experience and knowledge Kathy brings to the table. I am so glad to have had Kathy, especially in the recent job market downturn. Kathy helped me find joy in pursuing new opportunities, something I hope to carry with me for the rest of my life. Thank you, Kathy!”

    — David | Global Bio-Tech Product Marketing Director

  • “I found Kathy to be an excellent executive and career transition coach. I worked with her over a six-month period as she partnered with me to assess my strengths, leverage my network, systematically search and plan for my future role. I was immediately impressed how professional and friendly she was at the same time and how she inspired me to take actions to navigate change and ignite my career transition.”

    — Jovan Z. | Design Lead

  • “It was a pleasure working with Kathy through my transition from a company sale to finding the right leadership role in a new organization. Kathy’s experience, knowledge, and insight were key factors for me migrating into my next assignment. She provided assistance with all the aspects of my job search; from optimizing my resume and personal brand collateral to effectively networking within my targeted market segment. I feel that my collaboration with Kathy greatly compressed the amount of my time spent seeking out the next “right” opportunity for me.”

    — Fritz E. | SVP of Sales

  • “Kathy is a true pleasure to work with. When we worked together at Unisys, she was proactive, professional, consultative and able to relate to leaders and executives at all levels of the organization. She did not shy away from a challenge and worked consistently to find business-focused and impactful solutions that would drive our business. Kathy works hard and delivers results and I would love to have the opportunity to work with her again some day.”

    — Jennifer M. | Head of Global Leadership Development

  • “I had the pleasure of meeting Kathy in our Coaching Certification Program at Fielding Graduate School. Kathy has built a solid career as a Human Resource Executive across industries. Her vast knowledge and experience was helpful to everyone in the program. For our Oral Exams she was the most sought after partner due to her expertise and style. Kathy is considered an expert by many on HR competencies including, Organizational Design, Competency Models, Change Management, Diversity Training and Labor Negotiations. Over the years, I have collaborated with Kathy on many HR related issues. I would be honored to have the opportunity to work with Kathy again on any project.”

    — CHRO | Medical Device

  • “Kathy was a great contributor to our Organizational Change group — she had the ‘chops’ to deliver organizational change programs to clients (understanding the subject matter and the nuances and variables for each client), as well as seeming to have boundless energy to support internally facing projects. She is also equally at home in the world of training and project management, and on top of it all, a lovely and pleasant person to work with.”
