Kristin Heffley, Vice President and Youth Board Director, Kids Coming Together
I have had the opportunity to work and collaborate with Laura on a variety of projects over the last 15 plus years, most recently working under her leadership at Empower Youth Network. I can say without hesitation that Laura has always served as my North Star. Her understanding of the complex nature and navigation skills needed to work within the nonprofit organization landscape are unmatched. Laura combines an innate understand of people and systems with a profound understanding of the foundational element needed for a NPO to thrive. She remains one of my most trusted thought partners at those times when the road I am traveling is cloudy, and uncertainty creeps in.
Laura has been instrumental in supporting my career growth. As my supervisor, she entrusted me with stretch projects that challenged me and helped me build my professional strengths. Her feedback is always direct and precise, yet thoughtful and empathetic. Laura is a true champion for my success, consistently rooting for me every step of the way. I can’t recommend her as a coach highly enough!
Jody Miesel, Executive Director, A Supportive Community For All
Working with Laura Smith Consulting was a game-changer for my business. As a solo entrepreneur without an executive leadership team, having Laura bridge the gap was invaluable. Her experience in developing business strategies and being a sounding board for ideas made all the difference. Highly recommend for anyone looking to level up their business game!
Laura has a straightforward and experienced way to help problem solve and support me - both as a person and as a business owner. She is able to look at both the bigger picture and the 'right now' so that I can find actionable things to do. Her varied experience in both education and the business world gives her advice so much credibility and her ideas have sparked so many exciting things in my own life and business. She also helps me stay accountable to my goals and that is incredibly helpful. I am so thankful that I found her!
Every time I meet with Laura I learn something about myself and what my true priorities are for me, my business, and my family. She helps me see the wood through the trees and enables me to get out of my own way, and prioritize what I need to do. What’s more – somehow she does it in a way that doesn’t feel like a grind. I recommend anyone looking to for better strategic direction for their business, or their career path, set up a meeting with Laura.
