Katie McLaughlin is the Founder, Chief Strategist, and Transformation Artist at the McLaughlin Method, a boutique consultancy specializing in leadership and skills training for executive leaders of mid to late-stage startups. She is passionate about creating happier and healthier workplaces by stopping workplace hurt. In her business, Katie leverages her decades of experience driving organizational change, transforming processes and training programs, and applying principles of adult behavior and performance to create people-focused leaders and team cultures. Companies that work with her learn from the benchmarks and successes of over 15 software companies that have coached and trained with her.
Katie believes that culture must be consistently reinforced and brought into all interactions at work. Through leadership development programs, executives and rising leaders learn how to inspire and motivate their diverse teams, making inclusion and engagement a priority in the team culture. Katie believes all training must develop real skills and go beyond theory, so her sessions are highly interactive, employing theater exercises and games to go deeper while cementing the learning.
To be a great leader, you must be a person who is willing and ready to learn constantly, make changes in your leadership strategies where necessary, and be good at relating with other people. The best way to learn people skills is by practicing them constantly through interacting with different types of people.
Katie McLaughlin’s mission of helping leaders become better and more transformational people has allowed her to work with different executives from various companies. She believes that leaders should pay attention to their team’s varied perspectives, nurture them, and acknowledge their great potential.
