Latesha Byrd, The Catalyst

Change Agent & Visionary

I specialize in advising C-Suite executives on how to change outdated company culture and practices into nurturing environments that foster the growth of lasting, high-performing talent.

I empower employees with the knowledge and skills they need to construct careers that are worthy of their brilliance, impact, and skillset.

The current corporate landscape looks like:

  • Employee burnout

  • Communication and collaboration disruptions

  • Corporate marginalization and isolation

  • High turnover rates

My mission is to heal the current workplace crisis by supporting both employees and leadership in cultivating healthy environments that ensure all are valued.

Wellness + Workplace.
