Katharine has had an involvement in leadership and professional development of senior managers since 1990 when she developed for the National School of Government a two week residential management programme ("Young Node") for high flyers in the private and public sectors. In 2002-3, she worked with the Cabinet Office (Centre for Management and Policy Studies) to develop an e-learning leadership programme ("PRIME") for senior civil servants across Whitehall, building on the knowledge she gained in her research project – which focused on the training and development needs of senior managers in the Dti – conducted as part of her Masters in Organisational Behaviour.

Since setting up in 1997, Katharine has worked with a variety of public and private sector clients including most central Government departments plus the Insolvency Service; Office of Fair Trading; Postal Services Commission; Post Office Users National Council (now Postwatch); Lexis Public Relations; Oxford Molecular; The Portman Group; Trading Standards Institute; Pearson Television and APACS (Association for Payment Clearing Services).

They have included the Chief Executive of a Strategic Health Authority, a senior partner of a City law firm, a Director General in a central Government department, many senior civil servants and high potentials, and managers in a variety of sectors.
