In this HRchat we consider why the time for leadership coaching is now. 

Bill's guest this time is Christine Tao, co-founder & CEO at Sounding Board, a fast-growing scalable leadership development platform, combining technology and coaches to drive business impact for global enterprises.  

Christine's rapid career growth in Silicon Valley at Google and various startups inspired her to co-found Sounding Board with Lori Mazan, her executive coach. She has scaled hyper-growth startups to over $100M in revenue. Sounding Board is backed by leading investors like Bloomberg Beta and Precursor, and one of <3% of female-founded companies to raise venture capital.

Sounding Board is a cloud-based coaching platform and managed network of leadership coaches that makes leadership development scalable and measurable. 

Customers include leading enterprises such as Cloudera and Kraft Heinz as well as hyper growth startups like Chime, Bill.com, UserTesting and Klarna.
