How We Work
We start by understanding what you're actually facing, not the polished version, but what's true. Then we help you think through what matters, what's noise, and what needs to happen next. The work is direct. We ask the questions that need asking. We name what's not being said. We help you see the full system—the strategy, the people, the structures, the culture—and design for all of it, not just one piece.
Clients say it feels like having someone in the room who's been there before, who can see around corners, and who won't let you skip the hard parts. We don't leave you with a deck full of recommendations. We build strategy you can actually execute and a leadership strategy that lasts beyond the engagement.
The difference: our work doesn't end when the contract does. It shows up in how you make decisions, how your team operates, how your board engages, and how you lead through what comes next.
Our Work
We help leaders do the work in front of them.
And design for what's next.
At genius grace, we help leaders do the work in front of them—and design for what’s next. Sometimes, that means untangling a strategy that has become too complicated. Sometimes it’s helping a team rebuild trust. At other times, it’s guiding a board through decisions that set the tone for years to come.
What’s constant is how we work: with depth, focus, and a commitment to results that last longer after our work together.
Leadership + Strategy Development—for You, Your Team, and Your Organization
Coaching Strategic partnership for executives, leaders, and founders navigating growth, transitions, or inflection points. We work on the decisions in front of you—the ones that will determine whether what you're building holds. Leadership strategy, business development, decision-making under pressure, and how to stay whole while doing work that matters.
Strategic Advisory for organizations building, scaling, or redesigning. We think through strategy, structure, and execution—the questions that determine whether the work translates from plan to reality. Leadership transitions, organizational design, board strategy, culture architecture, and long-term positioning.
Leadership Experiences Cohort-based labs designed for real leadership challenges. Six-week intensives that blend frameworks, peer learning, and working sessions—built for leaders who need strategy and structure, not inspiration. Virtual. Focused. For people who want tools that work after the program ends.
A smarter approach to leadership and strategy development.
We work with leaders who are carrying a lot of big goals, real people, and decisions that matter. Some come to us looking to grow. Others are in the middle of a hard shift. All of them want a partner who can help them sort what’s essential, manage what’s not, and move forward without losing themselves or their teams in the process.
That’s what we do.
Strategy, leadership, and the human side of both so the work holds, and the people leading it do too.

Our Beliefs:
We believe leadership requires both genius and grace.
We believe leadership requires both genius and grace.
Genius—the strategy, structure, and systems that move work forward. Frameworks that are research-informed, evidence-based, and rooted in real acumen and lived experience. The discipline to design for what's ahead, not just what's in front of you.
Grace—the humanity, awareness, and leadership fluency that keep leaders grounded. The ability to see the whole system—people, culture, power, context. The intention is to build organizations where people and results both matter.
Most leadership work overindexes on one or the other. We integrate both.
The leaders and organizations we work with don't have to choose between impact and integrity. They build for both.
