Work with Kristi

Start with what needs to move.

A leadership decision, a business you are building, or people who need a useful conversation. Choose the situation you recognize. The work follows the job.

01 / I’m leading something important

The decision keeps coming back to you.

You are leading through growth, change, team friction, or a consequential next move. You need clear priorities, better conversations, and people who know what they own.

Executive and leadership advisory

Work on the actual decision, feedback, communication, or leadership challenge. Start with your role, what is getting stuck, and what needs to change.

02 / I’m building something valuable

Your expertise is valuable. Your offers, content, and experiences need to connect.

You are a founder, consultant, or expert with something people need. You may already have an audience, a useful resource, or a successful event. You need a clear way for people to discover your work, experience its value, and choose the paid next step.

Strategic Authority™ advisory

Work with Kristi to connect your expertise, offers, assets, experiences, and follow-up around a defined business goal. Decide what to sell, who needs it, how they can experience your thinking, and what makes the next paid conversation useful.

That can include an assessment or intake, a digital product, a dinner or fireside chat, a summit or retreat, and the consulting work that follows. Choose the pieces that serve your buyer.

03 / I need the room to work

The people need a reason to be in the conversation.

You need to deepen customer relationships, build partnerships, enter a market, develop leaders, or connect founders with people who can help.

Rare Rooms™ + speaking

For a commissioned room, start with the goal and the people who need to be there. For a keynote or facilitated experience, start with the audience and what you need them to think, decide, say, or do differently.

Strategic Authority™ / What we work on

Build a business around what you know.

Start with the work you want to sell and the people who need it. Then connect the assets, experiences, and conversations that help them take the next step.

  1. The offer + buyer

    Choose a real problem, the person who can buy the work, and a paid offer with clear scope.

  2. A useful way in

    Design a resource, assessment, or intake that helps people understand something important and gives you useful context.

  3. An experience of the work

    Choose a working session, dinner, fireside chat, summit, or retreat around the job it needs to do.

  4. The message + ask

    Make the value easy to explain. Practice the real message and give people a fitting next step.

  5. The follow-through

    Connect the response to a relevant product, advisory conversation, or organizational engagement. Name who owns the follow-up.

  6. Proof you can use again

    Capture what people understood, did, bought, or changed. Use that evidence to improve the next offer or experience.

Kristi uses this in her own business.
