Kate Ryan Reiling

Kate has a background in coaching, entrepreneurship, and education. She likes to make sense out of chaos, to synthesize disparate parts into a unified framework. She is a creative pragmatist, an optimistic realist who likes to dream big but can get stuff done.  Kate loves the space between the strategic plan and the detailed implementation, that interstitial world where the work is multi-faceted, the destination unknown and where the next steps require both imagination and systematic decision making.

Kate loves coaching people because she believes in nurturing an individual’s own capacity to lead, to wonder, to dream and to build possibilities beyond what they originally thought they were capable of doing.
She holds an MBA from the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College and a BA from Macalester College. She lives in Minneapolis with her daughter, two dogs, a hamster, three fish and two snails.
