Kathryn Mitchell

Helping leaders think clearly, act decisively and lead with impact

Kathryn is an executive and leadership coach, facilitator and consultant with over 20 years’ experience in senior commercial roles and more than 2,000 hours of coaching leaders globally.

She works with senior leaders who are delivering in complex, fast-moving environments and need the space to think clearly, make better decisions and lead with greater confidence and impact. Often acting as a trusted sounding board, Kathryn helps leaders step back from the noise, challenge their thinking and move forward with clarity and focus.

Before moving into her portfolio career, Kathryn spent over 14 years at Computacenter in senior roles spanning account management, business transformation, Head of Marketing and leadership of the Sales Graduate Programme. This gives her a strong commercial grounding and a practical understanding of the pressures leaders face when performance, change and people challenges sit side by side.

Kathryn’s work spans executive coaching, leadership development and team facilitation across a wide range of sectors including technology, SaaS, law, financial services and manufacturing. She regularly works with C-suite leaders on strategy, culture, leadership effectiveness and organisational performance.

She is particularly known for helping leaders see what is getting in the way, often before they have fully articulated it themselves, and for turning insight into clear, practical action. Her approach combines curiosity, challenge and commercial understanding, creating the conditions for honest thinking and meaningful progress.

Alongside her coaching work, Kathryn is Co-Founder of The Conversation Lab, helping organisations improve execution through stronger communication. She is also formally trained in AI for coaching and leadership, and is the creator of The Leadership Thinking Space, an AI-powered coaching tool designed to support leaders between sessions.

Known for her direct, perceptive and energising style, Kathryn creates space for leaders to think properly and ensures that thinking translates into action.

Her focus is simple: help leaders think better, lead more effectively and deliver stronger outcomes through clarity, confidence and action.
