About the founders

About the founders

Rebecca Dhrimaj
CEO (Chief Empathy Officer)

As Chief Empathy Officer, Rebecca’s mission is to redefine the role of the C-Suite by empowering leaders to coach people through change, one conversation at a time.  After leading change management for an organizational restructuring, she noticed there was a lack of tools available to leaders dealing with the human side of change: the emotions, the fear, the resistance.  She discovered that when leaders start with a WHY of caring and an intimate understanding of their team’s collective strengths, any change is possible.  When she is not preparing teams for change, she laces up her running shoes and tunes into an audiobook. Fun fact: she has lived in the US, Belgium, the Netherlands, and France and always has a secret stash of Belgian chocolate.
