Kathryn Harrington’s Expertise Public Affairs + Strategic Communications + Operational Leadership & Optimization A Master’s from Carnegie Mellon Univerity led to a public/corporate affairs career that started when I worked as a deputy press secretary on The Hill. A few decades later, I offer unique experiences spanning the White House and trade association, nonprofit, and consulting sectors. Inspired by mission-forward organizations, I excel at honing strategic focus, creating new programs, and optimizing talent. I offer particular expertise in food systems and consumer and policymaker needs, especially related to stakeholder engagement. I’ve led award-winning policymaker programming for the American Chemistry Council. I worked in the White House directly after 9/11 as a communications director and spokesperson. I rejuvenated a volunteerism program at the US Dept of Interior. I created a long-term storytelling platform for the US Navy. I honed a consulting mindset with public relations powerhouse Edelman. I’ve run communications programs navigating the policy/regulatory and consumer landscape for Taco Bell and Keurig Dr Pepper. I revamped talent assessment and standard operating procedures for a B-Corp. And, more recently I started my own consulting shop, while thoughtfully pursuing a final or penultimate full-time role of consequence. I enjoy people and collaboration and would like to roll up my sleeves, dig in, and lead a team within a fast-paced, dynamic, mission-centric organization. I offer 15 years of leadership experience, managing budgets of 2 million+ and inter-disciplinary teams of 20+, plus a track record of success with 20% portfolio growth, 100% client retention, and YOY reputation lift for Fortune 200 companies.
