TalentRise announced today that Kristen Fox Lampert will lead its Coaching and Leadership Development Practice. As Practice Leader, Kristen will focus on expanding TalentRise’s coaching and leadership development offerings, including Fast Start Coaching and Mental Fitness for Leaders programming.
Kristen has served as a Talent Consultant and Leadership Coach for TalentRise since 2019. Most notably, Kristen developed TalentRise’s Fast Start Coaching program, a three-month executive integration coaching program that dozens of TalentRise executive placements have participated in and benefited from. Fast Start Coaching continues to provide incredible value to newly onboarded executives and leaders as they navigate a new culture, engage their teams, and build relationships during their first 90-days on the job.
“Over the last five years, TalentRise has built a coaching program focused on transforming the lives of our executive leaders,” said Fox Lampert. “I feel honored to have the opportunity to build a people-centered coaching practice that empowers the leaders of today and tomorrow to cultivate a culture of self-awareness, psychological safety, and deeply trusting relationships.”
“Kristen’s thoughtful approach to coaching and leadership development is truly one-of-a-kind. She has played a vital role in setting up our executive hires for success both in and outside of the workplace,” said Pete Petrella, TalentRise Practice Leader for Executive Search. “We know that our Coaching and Leadership Development Practice is in great hands with Kristen moving forward and that she’ll continue to make a positive impact for our clients and the individuals who lead them.”
Stephanie Heys, Senior Vice President of Human Resources for Banner Solutions, a high-growth B2B e-commerce company, is one of many executives who have benefited from Kristen’s coaching services. Stephanie received Fast Start Coaching after being hired through a TalentRise executive search in 2022. She found the program so effective that she continued to leverage Kristen’s insights to further her professional development after the initial 90-day engagement.
“Utilizing TalentRise’s Fast Start and executive coaching programs under the guidance of Kristen Fox Lampert has been pivotal in my professional journey,” said Heys. “Kristen’s coaching expertise has played a vital role in accelerating my career, leading to notable growth and promotions within just a few months of our partnership. I am confident that her continued leadership at TalentRise will be tremendously valuable to professionals and organizations that leverage her expertise and insights.”
“Every business we work with is reimagining leadership, and the TalentRise team is excited to guide and coach leaders through this transformation,” added Fox Lampert.
As a coach and mentor partner to CEOs and leadership teams of venture-backed and founder-led companies, Kristen leverages nearly two decades of experience as an HR leader in the financial services, private equity, healthcare, technology, manufacturing, and legal services industries. Her work focuses on leadership and team transformations that leverage the power of Positive Intelligence, Predictive Index, and Hogan Assessment Systems. She previously founded Parental Shift Coaching and focused on improving parents’ mental fitness through group and individual coaching programs.
Kristen received her Bachelor of Arts from Bradley University and her Master of Business Administration in Entrepreneurship and Finance from DePaul University. She is a Professional Certified Coach (PCC) through the International Coaching Federation (ICF) and is also a Certified Positive Intelligence Coach (CPQC) and Certified Professional Co-Active Coach (CPCC). A Chicago native, Kristen currently resides in Matthews, North Carolina with her son and whoodle.
