Starting to think about your next executive move, but need help figuring out where you're going?

And how to get there?

Let's work together to define your value, nail

your pitch, get a fix on the right next step - and

create the plan to make it happen.

Maybe you've hit a ceiling.

Perhaps the company has been good to you but you’re feeling restless..

It's time to make your mark somewhere else.

You might even be asking yourself if it’s somewhere else? Or something else you're after?

Whichever it is, you know you need to get yourself ready for what's next.

Only you're struggling to find the time and the headspace to get started.

You're not sure how to position yourself.

And it's been a while since you've dusted off the resume. And LinkedIn?

Well…

Hello, I'm Kate

And I know that when it comes to figuring out your next move? The further you are in your career, the higher the stakes.

More responsibilities — at home and at work.

More opportunities to make an impact (but not as much time to do it).

And more questions about life... where it's taking you and who it's making you.

These things can take time to answer. And it can be hard to do it on your own.

As a smart person once said 'you can't read the label from inside the jar'.

It's why I love working with talented, senior people.

You may (or may not) know exactly where you're headed.

Whatever your situation, if you're motivated and ambitious to create the next chapter for yourself, I can help you write that story.

Over the last few years, I've worked with senior executives and C-Suite leaders from around the globe.

From Fortune 500s to small start ups

My clients have worked in a range of industries including media, technology, education, aerospace, the arts, renewable energy, financial services and cyber security.

And they've held influential roles in companies of all shapes and sizes - from Fortune 500s through to innovative start ups.

But the thing they all have in common?

They recognise that it's not always easy navigating this kind of path on your own.

And that's where I come in.

I bring the support, structure and accountability to get you moving in the right direction.

So how about we get you on your way?

A made-to-order engagement designed to help YOU define your value, nail your pitch, get clear on 'what's next' and make it happen.

Ready to get started?

We’ll work together to define the right outcomes from the start.

It might be…

  • A clearer definition of success and your vision for the next chapter

  • A refined articulation of your values and strengths to bring greater clarity to your communication and decision-making

  • A compelling elevator pitch that you can take into any conversation — from networking discussions to Boardroom interviews

  • A sharper definition of possibilities for your next step so you can bring a focus to your job search or career exploration

  • A specific action plan — whether it’s starting your own consulting business or moving to a new C Suite role

  • An indepth networking strategy to leverage and diversify your professional network

  • A tailored plan to lean into LinkedIn, the world’s greatest professional branding and networking platform

  • A compelling resume and LinkedIn profile that position you for the career you want, not just the one you’ve had

Clients tell me that it's not just that I help them see

themselves and opportunities differently. It's the support

and accountability I bring so they can turn ideas into action.

“Kate - you've been such a big part of my decision and journey.”

When we first started working together my brain was a blender of new ideas and question marks. All potential and no plan. Your approach was so powerful in unearthing all my motivations and goals in a digestible and actionable way. You made what seemed impossible into a clear decision with conviction and purpose. Forever grateful!

- Chris Wilkes, Ex VP/VC at HearstLab, now consultant to startups (U.S)

I highly recommend the outstanding coaching of Kate Richardson to any executive interested in growing their brand and expanding their career scope and spheres of influence.

[Happy New Year Kate. I wanted to pass on that I secured my first Board position as Treasurer at California State SHRM. Thanks for all the assistance]

We'll custom create the right package for you

  • Career Design

    Get clear on what's important to you and who you are at your best. Define your own version of success for this next chapter. Map the possibilities for what's next alongside what you genuinely want from your career.

  • Branding

    We don't focus on your 'what' we focus on your 'so what’. Then we craft a pitch that articulates the unique value you bring and the impact you make. I steer you through a complete upgrade of your executive resume and LinkedIn profile so you can position yourself as a hire value hire for the right opportunity.

  • Strategy

    We'll devise a plan that will help you take intentional action and make the most of the limited time you have. We'll define this together - it might include a job search strategy, targeted research, a networking plan, your approach to recruiters, or even a plan to explore going out on your own. Everything you need to move forward in the right direction.

  • Action

    I'll help you build your confidence to take action and hold you accountable to the plan we've developed. And when you need additional support in the form of interview preparation or developing a strategic response? I'll be right there.

When I started with Kate, All I really knew is what I didn't want to do.

By the time we finished, we landed on a plan built around tangible and actionable next steps that I couldn't have imagined when we started. Kate has the tools, structure and great chat, to reveal possibilities you didn't know were there.

- Tristan, Chief Strategy Officer

Media (U.S)

I've worked with Executive Coaches before and for me, Kate has been the best.

She's genuinely ambitious for her clients and gave me the structure and support i needed. In Kate, I found a great partner and someone I can trust. She listens, motivates, checks in regularly, and is generous with her networks. For me, working with Kate has been a really positive experience and one of the best investments I've made.

Kate helped me to not only identify but also to articulate my core strengths

As someone who lacked awareness of the strengths that I bring to an organisation, Kate helped me to not only identify themes but also to articulate my core strengths that I can use in my "elevator pitch" when describing myself to prospective employers or recruiters. Being in career transition, Kate also helped me to narrow down the categories and roles I wanted to consider for my next role, providing tools, insights. questions and valuable advice on how to approach each of the areas I identified that would enable me to make the best decisions in my job search
