Strategy Consulting that will make your business outperform your competitors and change the world

"I am pleased to recommend the team-building workshop hosted by The Awakening Company, led by Catherine Bell, which we attended in Banff last week. The workshop effectively focused on individual leadership values and practical strategies for shifting behaviors to fuel innovation. We work better when we understand each other better, and Catherine helped us do just that. Catherine’s engaging approach encouraged our team to reflect on personal and collective strengths, fostering open dialogue and collaboration. The insights we gained have renewed our team’s motivation and equipped us with practical tools to strengthen our workplace culture. I highly endorse Catherine and The Awakening Company for any organization looking to strengthen their teams and drive innovation."

"Catherine spoke to my MacKay CEO Forums group recently . Her presentation and message was very well-received . I would highly recommend Catherine as a future speaker to your organization . Thank you ."

"I had the privilege of witnessing Catherine Bell's transformative impact firsthand. As CEO of The Awakened Company, she's a visionary leader, blending passion, purpose, and playfulness to revolutionize corporate cultures globally. Catherine's expertise in fostering self-awareness, nurturing relationships, and optimizing team dynamics is unparalleled. Her dedication to awakening the fire within organizations is truly inspiring. Catherine's innovative approaches, coupled with her best-selling business author status, make her an invaluable resource for any organization seeking meaningful change. I highly recommend Catherine for her profound insights, unwavering dedication, and unparalleled ability to empower teams and individuals alike."

"Cath is the key to unlocking the next level when you're in a fast growth environment. When everything feels critical, Cath helps you step back, get strategic, and make a choice you're comfortable with. Her experience combined with her empathetic passion allowed me to delve deep and identify the key drivers for the business."

"Catherine is the most engaging, courageous, and compelling presenter I've encountered. More than her excellent cadence, tone, and organization- it's her authenticity and relatability that make her sessions so impactful. In a room of just under 100 people, Catherine connected to each participant. More than inviting us to participate in her presentation, she made her presentation about us, so we could see ourselves in her shared experiences. Even before reading her book, I have been able to incorporate some of her teachings into structuring my newest team to focus on innovation by promoting authenticity and recognizing the people behind the innovation. Suffice to say Catherine's teachings will continue to have a tremendous impact on my growth as a leader and as an individual. Thank you!"

"Catherine has this amazing power to bring the best out in aspiring entrepreneurs and leaders of tomorrow. As a thought leader she engaged with my students to develop their awakening mindset and support them in building corporate cultures in their organisations that will allow for sustainable and meaningful future. Leading with purpose is absolutely her superpower!"

"I was very fortunate to work with Catherine one on one this past year thru the Awakened Company Coaching Cycle. Catherine was excellent at listening and then asking me the "tough" questions, she was paramount in pushing me out of my comfort zone, taught me not to be afraid of the crucial conversations, and how to believe in myself and the natural leadership skills I possess. I have been able to bring back wonderful tools to implement with my team. I would highly recommend working with Catherine if you are looking to step up your Leadership Skills. Thank you Catherine for helping me find my North Star!"

"We (Smith School of Business MMIE Class of 2024) had a refreshing time with Catherine recently on "The Awakened Company". I was literarily "awakened" to the fact that as an entrepreneur, you need to be conscious of your actions, whether they are hurting or healing those around you - your relationships and the world at large. You can be humane in your approach to business and still be successful at it. This is business unusual. A totally different perspective from the rat race and the typical office politics that we are all accustomed to. The best part is that Catherine practices what she advocates and continues to succeed. I highly recommend her book, "The Awakened Company", and you can book a session with her, to top it up. An insightful and awesome experience awaits you!"

"Amazing lunch and learn with the glorious Cath Bell from the Awakened Company! Thank you Cath for working with our team to explore awake/ asleep practices. Mindfulness at work is important for all of us at CanLearn. I recommend diving in, we were so glad that we did!"

"As a thought leader, Catherine is exceptionally creative and forward thinking. She’s gifted at building meaningful relationships and making people feel seen and valued. I’m truly inspired to witness the way she leads by example, and encourages organizations to transform their cultures through conscious, purpose led training and development programs. Catherine consistently elevates her team and clients to reach their leadership potential in such a unique and authentic way."

"Catherine and her team have been working with BluEarth since our inception and have taken a thorough approach to understand our people, team dynamic, company values and our goals. With Catherine’s help, the constant and critical focus on developing a strong culture, and maintaining it as we increase in size, has been a key part of our success."

"As a leader and facilitator, she was both fluid and focused, fierce and nurturing, spending time where the team needed to go deeper and going far beyond the established agenda for the day to make sure we were all aligned in the same direction. Catherine is a gem and a true professional. Visionary, strong, and grounded. I had the privilege of learning from Catherine at an all day team building session with a diverse team of leaders. What impressed me first: her total commitment to the work that needed to be done for the team to understand each other and to know ourselves better to improve our performance. She set a powerful context to open difficult conversations quickly."

"Catherine was the keynote speaker at a social innovation event that REAP hosted. Her presentation combined traditional and modern techniques to surprise and delight our guests, challenging us all to awaken to our full potential as individuals, members of teams, and leaders of organizations. Catherine’s commitment to practice what she preaches is both inspiring and insightful as she leads the movement toward a new economic model. Her book should be required reading for every business leader and, when accompanied by a presentation to your team, is sure to create results!"

"Thank you for your captivating presentations and exercises. The CEOs really enjoyed your fresh ideas and I know all will now strive to create more awakened companies."

"Catherine and her team facilitated a meaningful integration of a new recruit into our BluEarth team. Using a variety of tools, they helped us understand our entire team better, including how to capitalize on our individual strengths and characteristics. Our team is definitely stronger, thanks to Catherine’s efforts."

"I’ve been working with Catherine for over 7 years now and she is truly a pioneer in her field. What is now finally top of mind for many leaders, she already identified as an opportunity more than a decade ago to change the way we lead and do business. She is not afraid to tackle the heavy topics and will help navigate the best strategy to move forward. She will lead change and challenge the status quo. She also tells it like it is. Catherine also has an incredible ability to translate difficult topics into easily understandable terms and practices. After working with Catherine you’ll walk away with an action plan and changes you can implement immediately. Catherine truly exemplifies her business beliefs in her own ventures, and her success speaks for itself. I would strongly recommend Catherine and her team for any organization that wants to do things differently and more effectively. I look forward to continuing to work with Catherine and her team. "

"Catherine Bell and The Awakened Company have been an invaluable resource and support to helping our team grow, mature, gel and deal with very challenging issues that are not uncommon with high energy teams that have great opportunities in front of them. Catherine has given our team very good tools to help us continue to focus on our vision, make it real and more importantly live it day-to-day. Catherine will continue to be an invaluable resource and strategic partner in our continued growth and success. Thanks Catherine!"

"As a small group facilitator at the New Mexico Leaders in Mindfulness Conference 2016, Catherine broke the mold. Participants walked away truly understanding the importance of awakened relationships across all aspects of their lives, but particularly the difference they can make at the workplace. With lightness, scientific evidence and a true sense of community, she was one of the Conference favorites."

"We highly recommend Catherine Bell as a facilitator for your next team building event particularly if you appreciate an authentic and unique approach to team development. Thank you Catherine for your refreshing, inspiring and thoughtful approach to team development. It is always difficult to commit to a day away from the office, but it was time well spent. The learnings from our session with you have resulted in more purposeful and richer interactions with each other."

"Catherine’s approach is entrepreneurial; but grounded in research and processes that are based on her own established best practices. Catherine is focused on doing it right; with a emphasize on being a terrific partner. She is hardworking and always thinking about a different way of doing things."

"Catherine Bell is a courageous and groundbreaking leader. The Awakened Company challenges organizations to advance their culture and purpose in ways that brings more value to all stakeholders . She’s a positive force and champion of organizations becoming more alive!"
