“In 1989, a study on “temporal perspective” found that when people imagine a future event has already happened, they get 30% better at correctly identifying why. Gary Klein turned that finding into the Pre-Mortem, and it's one of Curious Consulting’s favorite tools for a planning offsite.”

We’re startup operators with over 30 years of experience leading teams, managing growth, and navigating change. We built Curious Consulting to give leaders and managers the training and support we wish we'd had: clear, applicable, and designed for real life. We help companies upskill their leaders -- front line managers, directors, senior directors, and high performing individual contributors -- because we believe that elevating a company's leadership drives the most meaningful change. We build tailored programs to tackle persistent startup challenges like inefficient decision making, underdeveloped managers, weak execution, cross-functional conflict, inefficient communication, and underdeveloped strategic thinking.
