My standard for each engagement is to bring profound long-term impact to my clients by blending the best of coaching and strategic advising.

“In the daily whirlwind of executive demands, my coaching work is a structured opportunity for leaders to step back, see clearly, and navigate challenges with intention.

This investment in self-development isn't just about personal growth—it's the direct path to maximizing business outcomes and transforming leadership impact.”

— Katie Baird, Founder & Executive Coach

“Katie has the know-how and expertise to effectively guide her clients through complex opportunities. In our work Katie enabled me to clarify career goals that reflect my true values and priorities, and helped me formulate concrete strategies for successfully negotiating new professional opportunities.

She operates as a true coach, one who brings a supportive and an empathic perspective while also challenging me to grow and seek the meaningful change to produce the outcomes that matter most to me.”

— SVP, Tech Company

“Katie's practical inquiry, coupled with supportive coaching style, brings about a level of introspection and reflection which leads to truly impactful action. Katie has an impressive professional background, a broad perspective and a depth of knowledge that allows her to work with a diverse group of executives - all of which has enriched my individual coaching sessions. She has provided many valuable resources and I’m grateful for the tools that have extended the reach of our one-on-one conversations and equipped me for the long-term.”

— Senior Marketing Director, Healthcare Company

“As a newly minted share partner and mother to three kids under seven, I needed a resource to focus and accelerate my career development amid constant professional and personal demands. Katie's coaching provided exactly that. I respect her because she understands high-pressure professional environments and challenged my assumptions about courtroom strategy and firm leadership. Our work refined my case approach, created a more sustainable work schedule, and sharpened the focus of my professional goals. Her coaching has become an essential resource that makes me both a more effective litigator and a better partner at home and in business.”

Katie’s Coaching Insights

  • A key part of owning your career is taking control of the narrative about you, your impact and aspirations. This inclues, but is not limited to, being intentional about building and maintaining both your professional brand and relationships.

  • So many "shoulds" out there! Avoid the false temptation to make strategic choices according to the many voices around you. It's an easy path to go down, especially if you are not anchored in your own career vision or definition of professional success.

  • As you step into your new executive role, consider it as a chance to showcase as-yet-untapped potential. If you are purposeful in your approach towards growth during this transition, you will experience and witness the direct correlation between effective leadership and strong business results.
