Culture Can Be Designed
As the saying goes, “Culture eats strategy for breakfast.” Culture is a way to drive behavior. It is a way to align people with shared values to support each other in overcoming challenges and achieving ambitious goals. Culture impacts everything from productivity, engagement, and customer loyalty to talent retention, speed of innovation, growth, and, of course, profitability.

Cultural Transformation
Having founded three companies over the years, I realized one important thing along the way – you can never afford to stop learning. As each company grew from a handful to hundreds of people, the challenges have rarely been the same, so after 20 years of start-ups, I had the pleasure of meeting and engaging Therese to be my personal founder/executive coach. After a few sessions, I realized that the broader leadership team at my company would also greatly benefit from Therese and her team, so we engaged them to deliver their Cultural and Leadership Program.
They have worked extensively with many startups (especially at different stages of growth) which has given them the empathy to be attentive and responsive to fast-paced environments. They bring a unique combination of coaching management teams on both leadership development and business strategy, scale-up challenges, and establishing the right company values to enable a clear strategic direction. I was particularly impressed when they were able to bridge between people of different professional and personality backgrounds and get everyone “speaking the same language”.
By bringing their unique perspective on how to design and scale cultures to enable companies to grow sustainably, this program has had a lasting impact on our productivity and performance and has greatly improved collaboration and communication across the company. Over the years they have developed proprietary techniques and frameworks to model company culture, workplace engagement, leadership development, and recruitment (to name a few) to enable these skills to become teachable and actionable.
Therese and her team will empower your leadership team to identify and nurture high potential employees and develop them into high achievers, inspire creativity amongst the teams to achieve extraordinary goals, and create scalable support systems based on behavioral science. They have been a great asset to our company, and I’ve recommended them to several other executives who have also gone on to have very positive continued engagements with them.

I am so thankful that Therése and Reimaginez have built novel frameworks filled with space for empathy and understanding that allow her to be an uncommonly effective founder and culture therapist
It’s been my good fortune to work with Therése over the past few years, learning from her deeply informed perspective on how culture affects the success of both individuals and teams. To borrow a quote from Carl Jung, “Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will rule your life and you will call it Fate”…talking to Therése, you will quickly learn that nowhere is this more true than with company culture. If diving into the subconscious of the collective sounds like a daunting task–you should know that Therése has not only demystified the process, but shared it with me and others in a way that becomes incredibly rewarding and generative. This is why I am so thankful that Therése and Reimaginez have built novel frameworks filled with space for empathy and understanding that allow her to be an uncommonly effective founder and culture therapist. Her keen eye for maximizing strengths and minimizing growing pains for founders and companies is, from my experience, unique in its approach and effect, and I would recommend to anyone running a company that understanding Therése’s perspective will be of inestimable value.

On every occasion, the audience left on cloud nine, empowered to challenge the status quo and make a big impact in their businesses, careers, and lives
Therése is a fantastic entrepreneurial speaker and CEO advisor who shakes the sky. With almost two decades of experience, she has an excellent understanding of how to design and scale a thriving company culture and how to peak performance as a leader and high achiever.
I’ve had the pleasure of seeing her on stage several times, delivering a keynote speech at an exclusive conference in Stockholm, as part of a thought-provoking panel at an international book launch, and a workshop to coach and motivate the business elite of the American Chamber of Commerce in Sweden.
Therése is incredibly articulate, insightful, and inspiring. On every occasion, the audience left on cloud nine, empowered to challenge the status quo and make a big impact in their businesses, careers, and lives.

… ensuring successful cultural integrations. One year after the merger, my team and I are extremely happy with the transition and can confirm we are in a much better environment than before. This would not have been possible without Therése’s guidance
Cultural Integration
As the co-founder of a company that, for years, completely ignored the importance of building teams that share the same values and are culturally aligned, my perspective completely changed after working with Therese during the merger and acquisition (M&A) process for selling a division of my company. Therése assisted my team and me during the delicate transition from the seller to the buyer. Data show that 70-90% of M&As fail because key people leave, teams don’t get along, or demotivation sets in to the company being acquired. M&As are designed to benefit shareholders and not employees; corporations don’t understand the importance of investing in cultural integration before and after the merger and acquisition.
Therese and Reimaginez have developed a thorough and effective program for ensuring successful cultural integrations. One year after the merger, my team and I are extremely happy with the transition and can confirm we are in a much better environment than before. This would not have been possible without Therése’s guidance.
Reimaginez’s mission and work has a strong, undeniable, and beneficial impact on American businesses. The work enables one of the cores of the American economy, startups, to grow, prosper and add value to humanity.
I plan on leveraging Therese and Reimaginez for my future entrepreneurial endeavors.

3x Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR), positioning the company as the dominant player in their niche
Client: High-growth, VC-backed life sciences company headquartered in the US.
Challenge: Engage a mixed culture of High Performers and Cruisers to develop and scale a High Achieving Culture during an unprecedented period of growth, fundraising, growing pains, and new business.
Results: To implement a cultural transformation, we focused on a mix of strategic, tactical, and operational programs and initiatives. Reimaginez implemented several cultural initiatives and training and development programs, which enabled the team to experience a 50% increase in growth with High Performers.
To level up the team, we implemented several Futuristic Leadership Programs for management and next-generation leaders to strengthen and level up the teams. Alongside the client, we also advanced the culture and leadership from a mixed performance to a High Achieving Culture.
We helped the company to develop a proven recruitment methodology to attract more culturally aligned High Performers; the client adopted and implemented the proprietary processes, models, and frameworks that included The People and Purpose Centric Recruit on Culture Framework™.
We helped the company shift to a fully-remote model, align resources and people, and scale the company. Additionally, we leveraged product-market fit to increase market share that led to becoming the dominant player in their niche by creating a 3x growth in Annual Recurring Revenue in one year.
Merging Two Rival Companies Into One Thriving Company and Culture
Client: High-growth, VC-backed life sciences company headquartered in the US.
Challenge: A (smaller) company, our client, acquired a (larger) competitor making it crucial to align and integrate two competing companies on culture, leadership, and strategy. Not only did these competitors differ in dynamics and cultures, but also languages, foundations, challenges, and opportunities. Some might have called the environment of the acquired company mediocre or challenged.
Results: To successfully orchestrate a cultural integration, it was crucial to get the key players to agree on a joint vision that would provide a common ground to perform, collaborate, and thrive as a single unit. Reimaginez worked with the c-suite and key stakeholders of each of the companies to establish a deep level of trust and support. Uncovering unifying threads around values, goals, and leadership and developing and implementing the cultural integration plan ensured a smooth integration, setting them up for future success and exponential growth.
45% Revenue Increase During the Pandemic for an 18-year-old company
Client: Founder and CEO of an 18-year-old high-growth SaaS company in Europe with over nearly 200 million USD in annual revenue and a significant presence in 38 countries.
Challenge: Strengthen and align the CEOs, management team, and the board, remove roadblocks of internal conflicts to scale and set the company up for success with a strategic and cultural plan.
Results: With an already thriving culture, company leadership needed help navigating challenges that included removing toxic individuals and refinancing the company. Therese worked directly with the CEO to elevate his leadership and public image, partner with stakeholders, and thrive under extreme pressure. There was also success in strengthening the management team, leveling up performance throughout the company, and improving cultural initiatives.
Therese also provided long- and short-term strategic, operational, and tactical support to scale and set the direction of the company with the 2028 vision in mind. These pillars helped the client align the board and leadership on collaboration, strengthen the culture of kindness and performance, and execute initiatives to substantially outperform growth targets.
The outcome of addressing these challenges swiftly resulted in a 45% growth in revenue which is the best year-over-year (YOY) in the company’s history.
10x Deal Sizes
Client: Serial Founder and CEO of a Series-A health-tech company in the US.
Challenge: Scaling up yearly revenue and closing large commercial partnerships to secure market share.
Results: The underlying challenge was a disconnect between the goals, strategies, and priorities within the company, especially between the engineering and commercial teams. Steps taken included aligning the company around a united vision and strengthening their culture, followed by a targeted commercial strategy focused on clearer dream personas and value propositions. These initiatives resulted in increasing the average deal size by more than ten times.
