Hi, I’m

Katie Anderson

I am an internationally recognized consultant, bestselling author, speaker, and learning enthusiast dedicated to helping you accelerate individual and organizational impact.

Like you…

I have a passion for solving important problems, improving processes, and creating connections between ideas and people. Its what led me to get my bachelor’s degree in human biology from Stanford University, be awarded a Fulbright Scholarship, and receive my master’s degree in public health from the University of Sydney. And it’s what excited me to take operational excellence leadership roles where I led lean performance improvement teams in organizations like Stanford Children’s Healthcare and Sutter Health’s Palo Alto Medical Foundation.

I started Katie Anderson Consulting because I want to empower change leaders who can see what is possible for their organizations if they were able to cultivate a learning culture.

Because I believe that if people stay in learning…anything is possible

At my core…

I’m a learning enthusiast.

This has shaped my life decisions – both personal and professional. It’s motivated me to live, study and work in seven countries – including the United States, Australia, the United Kingdom, Spain, and Japan.

What I have come to understand is that success of any kind is grounded in an attitude towards learning and a connection to our shared humanity – regardless of our background or culture.

When individuals and groups cultivate curiosity, caring, and courage — and consciously stay in a learning mindset – together they can achieve anything.

Why Daruma dolls are my calling cards.

Daruma dolls are traditional Japanese paper mache figures that represent the perseverance and tenacity needed to achieve a goal by embodying the Japanese proverb, “Fall down seven times, get up eight.”

I use Daruma dolls to set my personal goals, integrate them into my keynote talks and workshops, and frequently give them as gifts because I believe in my core that…

Success isn’t about what you accomplish; it’s about what you learn along the way.

Are you ready to ignite positive change in your organization?
