Selected Client List
When The Telling Room was selecting a consultant for our next Executive Director, as Board President, I wanted a consultant that would lead with DEI principles, design a process that represented all stakeholders, and navigate our organization’s communications culture...The search process Reflector Lab designed and guided energized and unified our community, culminating in hiring a qualified candidate to lead our organization’s next phase of growth. I’ve been part of more than a dozen executive searches in my career, and Kendra and Molly’s deliberate process and thoughtful design will change how I approach all my future high-stakes hires.
Tim Schneider, Board Chair Emeritus at The Telling Room
Working with Reflector Lab has been an absolute pleasure. Molly and Kendra’s genuine empathy and multi-level approach to assessment set the foundation for an incredibly cohesive strategic plan. They went above and beyond by not only providing guidance to our staff, but also making themselves available to speak to our board. Strategic planning can be overwhelming, but they made it feel manageable and even exciting.
Julia G, Development and Operations Manager at Abortion Care for Tennessee
We knew the team at Reflector Lab would bring in strong expertise and strategy when they were hired. Even with our high expectations at the outset, Kendra and Molly's work with our team far exceeded what we thought possible. They came in with open minds and curiosity about our current systems and our pain points. After gathering information, they proposed and developed intuitive, highly functional systems and tools, helping us build capacity in every department of our organization and our inter-departmental work.
