Kathy Eastwood

I'm Kathy Eastwood, Founder and CEO of E Equals Why, based in New York City. We're pioneering new frontiers in leadership with our E3 Leadership Code, crafted to unlock measurable results and reshape how we connect with teams and stakeholders. Our mission is clear: to prevent our children from ever having to endure the kind of dismal leadership many of us have experienced at some point in our careers. I bring over 30 years of extensive leadership and boardroom experience, having held key executive roles such as COO, CPO, and CSO across diverse functions including finance, sales, and R&D. My career spans both large public companies and dynamic private enterprises, offering a unique and broad perspective on effective leadership practices across various industries. When I'm not steering the ship at E Equals Why, you might find me globetrotting to vineyards or indulging in culinary adventures—passions that reflect my belief in the richness of exploring and experiencing new cultures. My mantra? "Think strategically, not realistically." I believe success springs from bold visions and meticulous execution. That's why we developed the E3 Leadership Code—to turn grand dreams into reality. This philosophy permeates every facet of my leadership. I'm keen to connect, exchange ideas, and collaborate on crafting solutions that address the challenges we all face. Whether seeking strategies to improve team dynamics, looking for leadership development insights, or simply wanting a new perspective on executive management, I invite you to reach out. Let’s learn from each other and advance together. Cheers, Kathy
