Senior Advisory and Mentor
Connection, balance, and inclusivity are the core tenets of Kat Wong's advisory and mentoring approach, and always through an honest lens. With Kat's multi-award-winning career and eclectic journey across prominent creative houses, including production indies, BBC Radio, and a decade of international leadership roles at Apple, Kat has an undeniable track record of bringing out the best in people and creating a clear roadmap for growth without the burn out.
Known for building thriving teams and quality campaigns from global customer programmes to social initiatives, Kat brings a balanced approach to founders and leaders that still drives growth and results. Her straight-talking and empathetic approach has supported individuals and high-profile creative organisations in protecting their craft, purpose and meaning for communities, while rebuilding trust, and fostering a sustainable, positive culture both personally and in the workplace.

"Kat has always been a joy to work with. She has a rare mix of infectious enthusiasm, a clear mission, admirable values and a can-do attitude to die for.
Her wealth of experience running and inspiring high-functioning teams would be invaluable to any organisation looking for some strategic guidance and wisdom, and guaranteed to be delivered with a wonderful helping of candour and empathy."

Alex Bec, Co-Founder, It's Nice That
“People-first, courageous, brilliant at connecting the dots, Kat has a way of cutting through complexity with clarity and care, and that’s what makes her game-changing.
Kat has an incredible knack for understanding complex systems and the people within them, instantly seeing connections and helping you find clarity in the mess."

Jade Coles, Chair of Hackney Showroom and Cultural Curator at Today at Apple
"I came to Kat at a point where I was scrabbling for answers about what to do next. I knew I had a lot of experience, but I was struggling to join the dots and articulate where I wanted to go.
Kat has a great way of bringing structure to what feels overwhelming. She asked challenging questions, gave honest feedback and helped me build a much clearer understanding of my strengths and the kind of roles I should be targeting. As someone who tends to think in black and white, I really appreciated her practical approach and the workshop exercises that helped me reset. I've left our sessions feeling much more confident, with a stronger personal narrative, better interview preparation and, most importantly, a clear direction. All whilst feeling friendly and supportive. I'll not hesitate to return if I find more stumbling blocks and highly recommend for people who are in a similar position."

El C, Senior Brand and Content Manager
"I have worked with Kat Wong a number of times over the last seven or eight years.
Each time I've collaborated with Kat, I gain precious insight and invaluable knowledge. Kat's experience across her superhuman roles at Apple, BBC and beyond means that the advice and guidance provided are not only of the highest calibre, but based upon huge success."

Adrian Newman, Head of Music Services, Lambeth Council, former Reprezent Radio Station Manager
“Coaching sessions with Kat have been life-changing - and that’s not an exaggeration.
They’ve allowed me to re-evaluate what’s working in my career and create a roadmap for where I want to be. I come away from every session with practical advice, relevant resources, and actionable homework. In only a handful of sessions, Kat has helped me map out exactly what I want to achieve, why I want it, and how to get there. Kat is extraordinary - incredibly quick, knowledgeable, kind, and always fully present. Before we started coaching, I had no idea how to get from A to B and now I feel like I know exactly what I'm doing. Having someone like Kat support and coach me is genuinely changing everything for me."
