Leadership Liaison
Every CEO needs someone who’ll tell them what they’re not hearing. I’m a strategic sounding board for CEOs and CMOs. I get close to the center, interviewing stakeholders, soaking up the culture, and learning how you think. Then I become an extension of your voice and vision: polishing communications, reading the room, and testing ideas before they go wide. Part advisor, part filter, part intuitive partner. During a merger or acquisition, when everyone is stretched thin, I’m the extra set of ears you didn’t know you needed. And invite me to your next offsite. I listen, keep conversations productive, and ask the delightfully intrusive questions no one else will.
BRAND ACCELERATOR
Companies entering a growth phase need a brand that matches their ambition. I work with private equity firms, founders, and CMOs to deliver an objective, comprehensive brand assessment across six areas: Logo & Brand Identity, Name + Tagline, Mission & Values, Messaging & Positioning, Marketing Assets, and Customer Perception & Insights. You get a clear read on where the brand stands and where it’s leaving value on the table, plus a prioritized plan, so investors can round out due diligence and companies know exactly what to fix first.
BRAND THERAPIST
Let’s talk. When a brand feels stuck, outgrown, or out of step with its consumers, I ask the right questions to figure out why. I start with a brief brand audit, then add a simple consumer values map to show what’s holding the brand back and where the opportunities are. For brands rooted in history or a founder, I find fresh relevance without losing the loyal customers and employees who love them. Then we get moving.
Chief Listening Officer
When leadership senses a disconnect, is integrating an acquisition or merger, or keeps hearing the same feedback without understanding why, I lead immersive Listening Tours. I ask the kind of questions that put people at ease and build real trust, so front-line employees, customers, and key partners share the candid insights surveys never capture. In a deal, that means surfacing retention risks and cultural friction early, across both organizations. I then distill those conversations into clear, actionable intelligence for the C-suite. The result: your people feel heard, leadership gets the ground truth, and the value of the deal stays with the people who create it.
NARRATIVE ARCHITECT
What is your story, and does it resonate with employees, customers, and investors? I uncover the most compelling narrative and shape it for the moments that matter most. That could be the pitch narrative that wins investors, the founder or leadership story that builds credibility, or the story that gives two companies one future after an acquisition or merger. I help you honor where you came from, explain where you’re headed, and tell it so people believe it and repeat it.
COMPANY LINGUIST
Employees and customers can tell when a brand truly stands for something and when it’s just saying so. I bring key stakeholders together for energizing workshops where every voice shapes the outcome, then distill what emerges into a shared language: core values, a mission statement, and a manifesto. I also write standards of excellence that turn those ideas into clear expectations for how your people show up every day.
CONSUMER AMBASSADOR
Every strategy session needs a fierce consumer rep at the table, ideally one who also understands your business. That’s me. I’m often invited in as the voice of the consumer for product ideations, messaging sessions, campaign development, and creative reviews, so the connection feels authentic from the start and you avoid costly missteps (and the need for spin later). Want to hear from customers directly? I create and field surveys, conduct interviews, and observe people in the context of their lives. Then I turn what I learn into insights and prioritized counsel you can act on..
SOCIAL DO-GOODER
Cause marketing isn’t a trend. Sustainability isn’t a fad. They’re imperatives for doing business, and employees and customers expect companies to show how they’re making the world better. I’ve helped hundreds of brands do just that, and I’d be delighted to help yours. (My own front-porch granola nonprofit has raised over $100,000 for good causes, so I’m a little biased.) Whether you’re launching something new or refreshing programs already in place, I assess what’s working, find the right partnerships, and make sure every campaign fits your company and consumer values.
BRAND REJUVENATOR
When your brand equity is deeply rooted in the company history or founder, it can feel impossible to evolve, even as your market and consumers change. How do you find new relevance, without alienating loyal customers and employees who hold a strong emotional attachment? I bring a fresh approach to modernizing legacy brands while staying true to its extraordinary heritage.
