The Clarity Transformation Program

We move your business from a machine of non-scalable effort to a machine of predictable performance. Our program is the structured, evidence-backed execution of the Kindred Clarity Framework, designed for one purpose: to deliver a permanent, measurable fix to Organizational Friction.

The process is surgical, focused, and calibrated by data.

The Three Phases of Predictable Performance

Our entire engagement is governed by the Clarity Score from your initial Diagnostic. This ensures every investment targets the single, highest-impact structural repair.

  • Stop managing symptoms. Get data-backed consensus on where performance is capped.

    We use this proprietary score to tailor the scope and cost of the evaluation, ensuring maximum ROI on the next phase.

  • Move past speculation. We use specialized audits to identify the precise structural failure points across your six tiers.

    You receive a validated, data-backed blueprint of the root cause - the failure of system design - ready for implementation.

  • Achieve structural stability. We ensure the solution is owned and sustained internally long after our engagement concludes.

    We work closely with all internal System Owners and transfer all processes and decision matrices via the Organizational Clarity Manual.

Dr. Katie Powell Hinitz, Ph.D., MBA

Dr. Katie Powell Hinitz, Ph.D., MBA, is the founder and Principal Business Advisor of Kindred Consulting Group, where she helps executives transform organizational complexity into predictable, sustainable performance. She is known for her ability to rapidly synthesize complex information and translate it into clear direction, practical next steps, and data-backed decisions for leaders navigating growth and change.

As a former Senior Consultant and Growth Leader, Dr. Hinitz repeatedly saw high-performing companies stall - not from lack of talent or strategy, but from invisible structural friction embedded in their systems. That insight led to the creation of the Kindred Clarity Framework, a proprietary six-tier organizational model and diagnostic that pinpoints where strategy breaks down between vision, structure, and execution.

Grounded in her Ph.D. in Industrial-Organizational Design, she brings scientific rigor, behavioral science, and measurement discipline to every engagement, ensuring solutions are evidence-based and human-centered. Combined with her MBA and practitioner experience leading growth, she designs recommendations that are financially sound, operationally implementable, and aligned with executive realities - helping leaders move from friction to flow and from aspiration to measurable results.
