After years in corporate leadership roles, including CEO and President of a leadership development firm, she stepped out to build her own practice, Abundant Empowerment. Her focus is simple but not easy: helping leaders strip away the noise and reconnect with their authentic leadership style. Her work challenges a common pattern in consulting, adding more frameworks, more tools, more “best practices.” Instead, Andrea leans into subtraction. She helps leaders remove what’s in the way: doubt, comparison, and learned behaviors that no longer serve them. The result is clearer thinking, stronger decision-making, and more grounded leadership. For consulting firm owners, her perspective is particularly relevant. Growth often comes from better positioning, marketing, or sales, but long-term success depends on how you show up as a leader. Andrea’s approach reframes leadership as a personal discipline, not just a professional one. Proposed Interview Structure: 1. What got you into consulting and leadership development in the first place? 2. What specific problem are you helping your clients solve today, and why does solving that matter so much to you personally? 3. Who are your ideal clients, and who typically holds the decision to bring you in? 4. How do clients typically find you today, and what’s worked best to attract the right kind of consulting opportunities? Current Acquisition Channels: Referral, Content, Webinars, Podcast (guesting), Podcast (hosting), Speaking engagements, Cold outreach Sub Question: You’ve been running the Being [at Work] podcast for years, how do you see podcasting as a marketing tool for consultants? 5. When you’re selling executive coaching and leadership work, how do you build trust and move from first conversation to signed engagement? 6. How do you retain clients, what do you do to make sure they keep coming back and that the relationship becomes long-term? 7. Where do you find yourself most stuck right now as you build Abundant Empowerment (if at all)? 8. Looking ahead, where do you see the biggest opportunity for human-centered leadership and executive coaching over the next few years? *********************************************************************Know more about Andrea ButcherWebsite Link: https://www.abundantempowerment.com/Connect with Andrea Butcher on LinkedInLinkedIn link: https://www.linkedin.com/in/leaderdevelopmentcoach/Apply to be a guest on The Principal Podcast:https://ghapodcast.com/application-to-be-a-guest-on-consulting-leaders/
