Laurie Thibert is a business leader, relationship specialist, and founder of Aligned Insights Matter™, where she helps organizations develop high-trust, high-performing teams. Her leadership philosophy was shaped not only in boardrooms but also in 2008 while leading a volunteer trip to Ghana, where she met a young boy whose parents had died. Soon, she began the journey of becoming his mom. Their journey together strengthened her belief that high-quality relationships are built when the relational fabric is strengthened.

Laurie’s expertise has been distilled into a bestselling book called The CATR Theory™: The 4 Legs of Successful Personal and Professional Relationships. It’s NOT Rocket Science! (CATR: pronounced “cater”), where she offers a groundbreaking framework that is clear, human-centered, and transformative in understanding what truly makes both relationships at work and at home thrive—and how to repair them when cracks begin to form.
