Caitlin Thiede
Executive Vision Activator
Caitlin began working in small business environments in 2008 where she received on-the-job mentorship from executives in various corporate roles. Her curiosity to understand the relationship between executive business operations and non-executive roles fostered a drive to dig deep with questions, research and - eventually - experience. In 2014, Caitlin left the corporate world to support small and mid-size business owners as a copywriter and consultant.
While living off-grid from 2019 - 2024, Caitlin realized she couldn't continue business "as usual" because the values she once relied on to survive in the hustle culture - dehumanization, emotional decision making and flaunting an image - were no longer a fit for her new way of life.
Now Caitlin teaches non-profit founders and small business owners how to create humanized business operations from scratch in an affordable online business curriculum called The Legacy Brand Leader Blueprint.
