I’m Katie, the Founder of Action Potential Solutions. I became passionate about improving feedback in organizations while conducting research for my thesis during my masters degree in Organizational Psychology. My research took a dyadic approach to feedback, highlighting that how feedback is received is just as important for positive outcomes as how it's given. By reframing feedback and looking at it through a dyadic lens, we can help to improve the effectiveness of feedback in organizations. Feedback is an integral process for an organization's success. Effective feedback can help organizations to better capitalize on essential aspects such as innovation, change management, employee engagement, customer satisfaction and service quality and so much more. As both a Certified Training & Development Professional (CTDP) with Canada's Institute for Performance and Learning, and as an Organization Development Certified Professional (ODCP), I'm able take a more holistic approach to helping organizations optimize feedback. One that includes not only essential skill development for individuals in both giving and receiving feedback, but also the policies, procedures and processes in the organizational environment as well.

I’ve spent most of my career in the middle of complex change: technology leadership, transformation, PMOs, M&A, ERP, governance, and the messy gap between executive intent and actual results. I’m not a career theorist. I’ve reported to CEOs, CFOs, CIOs, and executive teams, led technology organizations, managed large budgets, and owned work where the stakes were real. When things were unclear, political, underfunded, or moving fast, my job was to bring structure, make tradeoffs visible, and help the organization keep moving. My background includes an MBA in Global Management, PMI-PMOCP, PfMP, PMP, corporate governance development through NACD, and executive development exposure through Ivy League executive development programs and events. I’ve also been recognized with awards for leadership in enterprise technology transformation. Audiences get a practical view of leadership, technology, governance, and execution. I speak about what actually breaks inside organizations, why smart teams still struggle to deliver, and how leaders can create more clarity, accountability, and measurable progress without burying people in bureaucracy. Good for audiences focused on leadership, technology, transformation, PMO, portfolio management, governance, M&A, strategy execution, and enterprise change.
